I would say probably yes, when they are on vacation in tropical places. I still see them on menus. Sometimes they have an added twist, like an additional fruit of some sort.
I still see them on menus at tropical places, like @JLeslie said. When we go to Florida in winter, we go to a popular restaurant that’s got a tropical theme, and they have pina coladas and other drinks like that.
I had a pina colada last month with guacamole and chips. Last week I had the perfect margarita at Applebees, no salt. Too sweet but tasty.
I’m not a big drinker so it has to taste good, and doc said beer is the worst for our bodies.
The last time I was in Dubai the beach club had multiple differ t versions of pina colada. But I suspect that it’s one of those things that taste better when your sitting on a beach in 40 degree heat.
I actually love Pina Coladas but they are calorie bombs as @Blackwater_Park says and I don’t see them on menus much around here. I do associate them more with a tropical vacation but when I was newly home with my second son, my Ex and I got in a routine of having Pina Coladas at night for a few weeks. Maybe that’s why he’s always been a more mellow guy.
A couple of days ago, hubby and I were at the rooftop restaurant of a Brooklyn hotel, sitting in the hot sun and looking at gorgeous views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline. The magical setting inspired him to order a pina colada. The bartender didn’t have the necessary ingredients and couldn’t create one! It seems that they have, indeed, lost some popularity and aren’t in much demand.
Omigod, so sticky. I hated when people ordered them, what a mess to make and clean up after! But when somebody else had to deal with the mess, I loved drinking them.
Haven’t seen any in a long time, I am wildly boring, now, drinking wine.
I’m with @janbb I love them but you may as well order a lava cake if you are looking for calories. I went out to a korean place for dinner and ordered their strawberry flavored soju. Sooo, good. I think this will now be my favorite drink. Light, refreshing and still gives you a buzz. They didn’t have regular soju on the menu but everyone tells me its like a lighter version of sake and I don’t care for bitter drinks.
While searching online to see what was in favor & out of favor, I ran across several Pina Colada Pies. Haven’t made one yet, but they did look good & you’d have more control over what went in it to help tame the major sweetness of the drink. Some were baked & some were no bake.
