Piña Colada with Coconut Milk Ice Cubes

Piña Colada with Coconut Milk Ice Cubes

I love coconut milk.  What I don’t love is that I never end up using a whole can.  I always store the leftovers in the fridge with the intention of doing something with them.  That something never happens.  Ever.  Not. even. once. #epicfail  Then I came across this awesome article about freezing coconut milk.  Sheer genius I tell ya!

Piña Colada with Coconut Milk Ice Cubes

 

I thought about making a smoothie with the coconut milk ice cubes but with summertime in full swing I thought a fun and fruity piña colada would be a nice summer treat.  My whole family enjoyed these and they were so easy to make.  Yea for coconut milk ice cubes!
