A bit of history
There is still debate about when and by whom the Pina Colada cocktail was invented . So, at one time, authorship tried to appropriate the Barcelona Ricardo Gracia in 1914.

After 8 years, “Pina Colada” has become terribly popular, over the years the number of people who have tried it has constantly increased. In 1950, an article was written about the sensational cocktail in the legendary New York Times. 4 years after this publication, the bartender of the Caribbean hotel “Hilton” Ramon Marerro said that it was he who, over the course of three months, had been developing the recipe. Maybe he would have been able to appropriate the first discovery of this cocktail if at the same time authorship had not been announced in the Old San Juan place. Today “Pina Colada” is the official drink of Puerto Rico.
