Fro-yo girl here. I remember Pinkberry had a pina colada froyo flavor. Their newest flavor, Pineapple Colada, sounds very similar but it must be different because it’s listed separately on the Pinkberry website. Pineapple Colada froyo is tart and features pineapple and coconut. Sounds like pina colada? I doubt I ever had a cup of Pina Colada Pinkberry because I don’t like coconut.
However, I decided to try the new Pineapple Colada because of the special offer for Pinkcard holders, buy two Pineapple Colada Wave creations within two weeks, and get a free swirl. I was also intrigued to see the special Aquaman Pinkberry cup, because I’ve never seen a special Pinkberry promo cup before, except for the launch of the PinkCard years ago. The blue cup says Aquaman on one side and Pinkberry on the other.
The Pineapple Colada Wave features pretty blue Pineapple Colada froyo w/ fresh pineapple and metallic blue, silver, and white sprinkles. It was an unusual combination that I would have never chosen on my own but it worked. The yogurt was smooth and light. The coconut flavor was not too strong. It was mildly tangy. The sprinkles were bits of sugar that added a little crunch. The tangy pineapple pieces helped keep the creation from being too sweet.
Aquaman the Movie comes out on December 21, 2018.
You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
Here’s the official press release:
