In the spirit of my trip to the Caribbean, in exactly a week, I decided to put a twist on the classic Caribbean drink, the piña colada. I used the greek yogurt to make it more silky and a bit more think, and of course the strawberries give it a nice sweetness and pinkness to it. Well I hope you enjoy this amazing drink as much as I did and feel free to dress it up with little cocktail parasols!
