Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen pineapple
- 1/4 cup milk of choice (or canned coconut milk)
- 2 tbsp sweetener of choice (e.g., sugar, maple syrup, or sugar-free alternatives)
- 2 1/2 tsp lemon juice
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Pineapple: Ensure pineapple is fully frozen before starting. If using canned pineapple, drain and freeze the pieces until solid.
- Blend Ingredients: In a high-powered blender, combine frozen pineapple, milk, sweetener, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides if necessary.
- Serve Immediately: For a soft-serve texture, serve straight after blending.
- Optional Swirls: For the classic swirl, pipe the mixture with a star-tipped piping bag. For firmer swirls, freeze for 20 minutes before piping.
Notes
- Substitute coconut milk for extra creaminess or a tropical twist.
- For variation, mix in other frozen fruits or add citrus zest for a flavor boost.
- Store leftovers in the freezer for up to 1 week. Allow to thaw slightly before serving for the perfect consistency.
