According to The Telegraph scientist from Queensland, Australia have developed a new pineapple that has a "lovely coconut flavor". The Telegraph continues, "The new pineapple, called 'AusFestival', has been dubbed the 'piña colada pineapple' and will potentially – as local media noted – preclude people from having to mix fruits in the famous cocktail."

Apparently the coconut flavor was not the desired result. Rather it was a added benefit of the breeding program looking for a "nice flavoured pineapple...that is sweet, low acid and aromatic."
