No blenders have to die anymore.

My BFFs and I have a years-long tradition of singing this song out loud, in public. This is mostly because I make legendary pina coladas. People who have been round to my house for a pina night will tell you. No really, ask anyone who knows me. Hands up everyone who’s survived a pina colada night at mine? Yeah, I see you.

Here’s that song we sing to get you into the mood:

Problem is, I have – over the years of pina colada creation – destroyed numerous blenders. Really, really destroyed them. I’ve had blenders explode, emit smoke and whizz bits towards the kitchen roof.

That’s where the lovely folks over at Original Cocktails have stepped in. Not only do they make a range of delicious cocktails, pre-mixed and ready to party, but no blenders have to die in the process of me throwing a party. Thank you, Original Cocktails for saving blenders across the country for years to come. You can check out Original cocktails on Facebook, follow them on Twitter or take a look at their website here.

Whilst these little superheroes may have saved blenders from my maniacal cocktail creation antics, they’ve also – very sweetly – sent me a little package of cocktail awesomeness to give away to one of you lovely readers.
