One of the most popular and sought after recipes has to be ways to make your fruity cocktail drink into a jam.

When I saw Darcie’s post about making a Pineapple Jam and she was using Coconut flavored rum, Was it possible to make the Pina Colada into a reality? I don’t drink often enough to even know that there was a coconut flavored alcohol without cream. But she did it and I was so excited for the recipe.

From Darcie: “I really like the lime juice in it. It calms the sweetnessdown and makes it a little more interesting.”
