Shaken Udder's [flavored milkshakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shaken-udder-milkshakes) may be loved by kids, but the brand is now sharing a tasty pina colada recipe to appeal to adults.

The most essential ingredient in the recipe is Shaken Udder's Top Banana flavor, which provides a creamy base for blending. On top of this, the recipe also calls for [coconut cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caleo), sugar syrup, pineapple juice, ice and a [splash of white rum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rumblers-cola). In total, this drink only takes about five minutes to make.

Since the addition of alcohol is completely optional, this is also a great way to shake up a familiar milkshake flavor even more. Parents are sometimes concerned about kids raiding their home bars, but now adults will be tempted to borrow a few Shaken Udder drinks from their children.
