The pina colada flavor is very subtle, which I actually prefer. It's not overpowering, and it allows the other flavors of the cake to shine through.

I'm not usually a fan of pineapple upside-down cake, but this recipe changed my mind. The pina colada flavor is amazing, and the cake is so moist and fluffy.
