Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 2 tbsp honey or simple syrup optional for added sweetness

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Prepare the pineapple by peeling, coring, and chopping it into small chunks. Measure out two cups of prepared pineapple.
  2. Add the pineapple chunks to the blender along with the ice cubes. Pour in honey or simple syrup if you want extra sweetness.
  3. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until the mixture is smooth and slushy, with a vibrant yellow color and a creamy texture that feels thick yet pourable.
  4. Stop the blender and check the consistency. If it’s too thick, add a splash of cold water or pineapple juice and blend briefly to loosen it up.
  5. Pour the pineapple slushie into chilled glasses, allowing the ice crystals to settle slightly for a thick, frosty presentation.
  6. Garnish with a small pineapple wedge or a fresh mint sprig for a colorful touch and extra fragrance.

Notes

For a creamier texture, blend in a splash of coconut milk or add frozen banana slices.
