I had never had a real coconut before, so I was dissapointed with the amount of liquid inside. Gilligan's Island led me to believe I could pour out glassfulls of the stuff. So I poured out what I could into the blender with some chunks of coconut that I cut out with a knife, a few chunks of pineapple, some pineapple juice, a splash of milk ('cause I have no cream), an oz or so of simple syrup, a dolop of Bacardi, and just a touch of Cruzan Mango. I blended it all up and poured it into a shaker with crushed ice, shook until my arm hurt, and poured it into my cocktail glass. It tasted very good, but nothing like a Pina Colada. Next time I will stick to the Coco Lopez.
