This frangelico colada is a lot like your typical pina colada but with a hit of hazelnut flavored Frangelico. Totally delicious and perfect for sipping!
Well, the time has come. We are finally at the end of The Boozy Days of Summer. The past two weeks were full of roasted fruit, bitters, herbs, infused vodka and overall cocktail deliciousness. For my final drink I added a little pink umbrella. Seriously, who doesn’t love an umbrella in their drink?
I was surprised when I looked back at all the cocktails I made for the Boozy Days of Summer and realized that I barely had any frozen cocktails. What is wrong with me? Frozen cocktails and summer go hand in hand…am I right?
This is why when I teamed up with Frangelico I knew I wanted to make a nutty frozen concoction. Plus, since I normally just use Frangelico in my coffee I knew I would need to go outside my normal comfort zone. Hot coffee and 90 degree weather do not mix. So, wanna know whats in this frozen beauty? It’s a play on the classic Pina Colada and combines sweet coconut, rum and of course Frangelico. You will not believe how simple this drink is to put together!
Looking for more delicious cocktails? Try my peach mint bourbon sweet tea, fresh grapefruit margarita or my mango mojito!

I recently found your blog and I just had to tell you that your photos are gorgeous! I’m just getting started with my blog and I’m simply amazed at how good food photography can be. It’s definitely a lot harder than it looks!
Oh my goodness! This looks so tropical and refreshing. Yum! I just want a straw, a lounge chair and one of these in my hand.
I don’t know that I would have paired frangelico with coconut and rum, but now that I think about it, it sounds great! I can totally see myself sitting poolside with this.
Oh my word, I’m in love with this idea!! I am an unabashed pina colada fan and this just took it up a notch further.
I would be a hot mess if we were neighbors and you were mixing me up beauties like this every week!!
Yum..I love frangelico…and coconut. This combo sounds so awesome…must try it asap!
Summer isn’t over yet – so I say the boozy days of summer should continue on!!!
This is such a great combination and sounds wonderful on this mega-hot day!
I love frangelico and coconut but never thought to pair them. I’m so making this in a couple days. I’m so excited to meet you next week at BSP!
How did I miss this beautiful beast all these months ago? I think winter is a perfectly good time to drink up some SUMMER!
