What drink was featured in a famous 1970s song by Rupert Holmes?
Correct answer: Pina Colada

If you like pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain...
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain...
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape...
I'm the love you've been looking for, write to me and escape...

Love the song and the drink, to whoever asked if it was only a hit in the states - no, it's well known in Europe as well. Great song to listen to, listen to the lyrics and enjoy.

Wonderfully awful song. Let's romanticize cheating on your SO. Lol. It's one of those songs I like to hate and can't help getting it stuck in my head- so thanks for that.😉😂

town01, ah, yes...in the dunes. Married shortly after, some - let's see - lordy, that was 58 years ago! Where does the time go? and it was closer to noon, come to think of it...

JustBreath, for what it's worth, though, by the end of the song the two clearly deserve each other.

Purple Kitty, Had a few at the Caribe Hilton in San Juan. Also made hundreds maybe thousands working at a beach bar in San Juan during the 70's.

They only thought they were cheating on each other but if you listen to the whole song, when they met, he sings "ah it's you ".

Rupert Holmes had another song that was so popular here in the Phils. when I was a kid. That song was "Terminal." I always sang that song in my head while waiting for the bus to go to school.

One of my favorite songs! I was in 6th grade when It was released & had no idea what a Pina colada was so I asked my daddy & he said never mind! Lol!!

JustBreath, Agreed. They still planned to cheat on each other. I can’t imagine this scenario turning out well.

SneakyDemon73738, Timothy was a Mule! His name is on his hat on the album cover! Not cannibalism.
