Alas, I won’t be drinking margaritas this Cinco de Mayo (future baby: you can thank me later).

But nearly as delicious is this tropical, creamy smoothie, which I will be drinking.

I added the raspberries here for color and tang, and ended up liking the result even more than I thought. Newest favorite smoothie!

As the weather begins to heat up, you’ll love having this pina colada treat recipe in your back pocket.

    This looks so delicious. I am not a big drinker but pina coladas are my favorite for the whole coconut flavor. I love the addition of the raspberries. It makes for such a pretty color.

    I just got back from Maui last week and had TONS of pina coladas out there. This looks so refreshing. I’m sure a sip will take me back to the beaches of Maui! Also love the addition of the coconut flakes!

    I’m a little envious of your Maui trip 😉 Pina coladas in Hawaii are the best! Hope this helps you reminisce!
