Our Piña Skullada is a classic shaken Piña Colada with a twist. The stars of the show are the skull-shaped ice cubes, made from sweetened coconut milk, that will keep your drink cold without watering it down. Garnish with as many Maraschino cherries as you can fit on a cocktail stick, and enjoy a spooky yet summery vacation cocktail in October.
