Meet The Frozen Brancolada: A Frozen Pina Colada That Takes A Detour To Italy

Food Republic•

South Williamsburg cocktail parlor Donna is one of our favorite New York City bars — effortlessly cool with a menu of creative drinks that hits you in the right place. James Murphy has been known to spin there and Brooklyn Taco tends to pop up as well. We can handle that combination. Yes, sir. But onto the drink! This play on the classic piña colada punches you in the face with a nice amount of Branca Menta (a close cousin to Fernet Branca) with the usual juice suspects in the mix. It's great for your backyard patio bash.
