But the Butterfly People make it better. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" /> Actually....."The Piña Colada was created by Ramon “Monchito” Marrero in 1954 while working as a bartender at the Caribe Hilton." (Have no idea which account is true, but the Caribe Hilton has the earliest claim I can find!) http://www.caribehilton.com/pinacolada/ Well maybe you're right, that was a few years earlier then when I arrived in the Caribbean in 1964 and at the time the only rum drink with a name was the Cuba Libre or Rum Punch. But in the late 60's the Barrachina claimed they were the originators <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />
