Limited Edition The Collective Coconut, Rum ‘n’ Pineapple

For someone who has never really liked coconut in anything other than a Malibu and Coke (don’t judge me), I have recently been eating more and more coconut flavoured foods and loving them, and I am hoping to add The Collective Coconut, Rum ‘n’ Pineapple yoghurt to that list.  I have tried quite a few of The Collective yoghurts, FYI Mango is my favourite, and mostly they have always faired pretty well.
