However Pina Coladas are easy to make and a delicious summer treat, with or without alcohol. To make them extra special, cut open a coconut and use a stick blender to make them fresh in the shell!

They require very few ingredients, and none of the ingredients are special to just making cocktails, making Pina Coladas an easily accessible drink to create.

They are also, at their heart, dirt cheap. Canned coconut cream, heat and mix in some sugar to make a coconut cream syrup if so desired, or if you don't mind it less sweet skip this step. Add in some canned pineapple, and some rum, and you have a basic version down.

This resp has very chatgpt tone of voice…
Not sure if I should be insulted or not.

For reference, here is what happens when I ask ChatGPT for a pina colada recipe in a conversational tone

Here's what you'll need:

1 1/2 oz of your favorite rum 2 oz of pineapple juice 2 oz of coconut cream 1 cup of crushed ice A slice of pineapple (if you have it) A cherry (if you want to be fancy) And here's what to do:

1. Put all of the ingredients (rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream, and crushed ice) into a blender.

2. Blend everything together until it's nice and smooth.

3. Pour the mixture into a glass.

4. If you want to make it look extra special, put a slice of pineapple on the rim of the glass and add a cherry on top.

5. Sip and enjoy!

If you like your drinks on the sweeter side, you can add some sugar or simple syrup to the blender before you blend everything together. And if you don't have coconut cream, you can use coconut milk instead, but the drink won't be as creamy.

In general, it completely fails at being conversational at all about it!

As an AI assistant I can't comment on posting recipe comments from AI on HN, but here are the steps for doing it:
