Description

The Greena Colada is a modern tiki cocktail that was created by Alex Sukopp, former bartender of Sips From Scripts, as a variation of the Piña Colada. Inspired after reading through Smuggler's Cove: Exotic Cocktails, Rum, & the Cult of Tiki by Martin Cate, the recipe adds a healthy dose of Green Chartreuse, which is where its name is derived, to the classic's mix of rum, pineapple, citrus, and coconut flavors.
