Ingredients:
- 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/4 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 2 tablespoons sugar or honey (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- A pinch of salt
Equipment:
- Blender or food processor
- Piping bag with star tip (optional, for serving)
Preparation:
- Blend Ingredients:
- Combine frozen pineapple chunks, milk, sugar or honey, lemon juice, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a blender or food processor.
- Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. Stop and stir or scrape down the sides as needed to ensure even mixing with no chunks remaining.
- Adjust Consistency and Flavor:
- If the mixture is too thick, add a little more milk and blend again. If too thin, add more frozen pineapple and blend.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity with additional sugar or citrus juice if needed.
- Serve Immediately or Freeze:
- For immediate serving, transfer the mixture to a piping bag with a star tip and swirl into cups or bowls for a classic soft-serve look.
- If not serving right away, store in an airtight container and freeze. Before serving, let it thaw slightly and briefly re-blend for a creamy texture.
