Light Pina Colada

- #21707
Creamy, tropical pina coladas aren't off limits just because you're taking things a little lighter. Trading regular coconut milk for light coconut milk makes the colada much lower in fat and calories, but thanks to fresh pineapple and lime the drink keeps its delightful island flavor.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
