[…] Banana Colada recipe from Lipgloss and Crayons […]
Doesn't this Banana Colada cocktail recipe look amazing? It's perfect for summer bbqs and warm weather parties!
Phew, is anyone else breathing a Tax Day sigh of relief? My husband is an independent contractor….so taxes are always VERY complicated. After weeks of putting everything together, we are done….and our taxes are signed, sealed and delivered. That calls for a drink, right? I figured this was the perfect day to share our latest Mommy Juice concoction……a delicious Banana Colada!
I whipped this baby up this weekend with the help of Blue Chair Bay's banana rum……and hubby claims it's the best cocktail yet! It's a perfect warm weather cocktail, so trust me…..this one will be on repeat over the hot summer months.
Banana Colada
Yum
Ingredients:
3 jiggers of Blue Chair Bay Banana Rum
3 cups of peach juice
2 jiggers of Cream of Coconut
ice cubes
Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a blender, and blend for two minutes or until combined.
Garnish with sweetened coconut shavings, and enjoy in your lawn chair watching the sunset.
Serves 2 (or one recovering from tax day individual)
Oh, and Blue Chair Bay is giving away a bottle of Banana Rum to one lucky winner……..all you have to do? Pin this recipe. Yup, that's it! I'll be picking one lucky winner and contacting them to get their shipping address so that they can make their own banana colada cocktails! Be sure to check out other cocktail recipes before you go!
This rum was provided by Blue Chair Bay Rum for sample purposes…..but my obsession with it? All my own!

This looks SO good. I could use one now and it’s not even 8 am. HAHA! 🙂
Yum this looks so good! I haven’t had a colda of any sort in ages. I love bananas, so this would be a perfect treat! Especially now with the nicer weather this would be great out on the patio! Yummy.
This looks amazing and I will try it. I made some drinks with some rum I had on hand last night & I’ll have to try Blue Chair Bay Rum as well. I use rum for so many of my drinks.
this looks good. I have never had this before.
Okay Carly, I am ready to officially welcome Summer. Thanks for this today. I am going to also try to make it into a post run/workout drink. I will have to remove the Rum for that one 🙂
This looks delicious! Definitely trying it after this pregnancy!
I have never tried making any type of drinks with rum in it. I have to say, this is something I would like to try because of the banana.
I have been hearing amazing things about Blue Chair Rum… this looks DELISH! I would love to try them out soon 🙂
WAHHHHH, I want to drink this now! I am doing Tone It Up bikini series and I am going through it without drinking. Man, this is going on my list when I am all done!
So I just started a Whole30… this looks like it will be one of the first things I make when it’s over! Looks great! Pretty pictures too!
You drink recipes always look straight out of a magazine! This looks so good. The problem is how do you stick to just 1?! Not that I’m a lush or anything but I’ll probably have like 3 of these bad boys.
I could get used to a drink like that. Wow that sounds nice.A peach, coconut and banana combo sounds amazing.
Omg this drink sounds delicious!!! I’m not usually a liquor drinker, but when I do dabble in liquor rum is my what I drink!
Pinning this! I could certainly use it today.
Oh my goodness… Is this even real? Wow. I love this. I’m normally not a banana fan (I like bananas as a banana, that’s it.) But this does look and sound great!
Mmm this sounds so refreshing…love the inclusion of the peach juice!
We’d only have one taker for that drink over here… since it has coconut ;). Looks good! It’s always a relief to be done with taxes… paperwork can be such a pain.
This looks amazing! I love drinks made with bananas. My husband would love this too.
This. Looks. So. Yummy! I cannot wait until the weekend so I can whip up on of these yummy beverages! I’m sure it tastes great, and it looks so pretty in the pictures, too!
I’ve never tried a banana rum but I’m intrigued!
This sounds like a great cocktail! Taxes were brutal for us this year so thankful for my accountant.
This sounds and looks so delicious indeed. I will be making and drinking these this weekend. I love bananas and coconut. Thanks for sharing.
This looks so good and you tempting me now! I need to try it soon! Mom needs a break and a drink hehe.
I could so go for one of these right now! Looks delicious and great photo!
I’ve never had banana in a drink before. I really want to try it and now I want a cocktail! 🙂
I’m putting a pool in my backyard so I can make these and enjoy them as they should be. This look SO good!
This sounds and looks amazing! And I sort of need one of these too after we finished up our taxes a couple of weeks ago. Being self-employed can be painful at tax time, lol.
I seldom drink alcohol, but I do love to have an alcohol beverage every once in a blue moon. This one sounds like one I’d really enjoy!
Just the look of that already makes me feel full and I just know its super yummy too!
