Tips:
-
- For a richer flavor, you can roast the pineapple before blending.
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the mixture in a shallow container, then break it up and blend it in a food processor for a softer, sorbet-like texture.
- For a tropical twist, add a splash of coconut milk or rum extract to the mixture.
