Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks preferably frozen overnight for best texture
  • 1 cup ice cubes use a handful more if texture is too thin
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice optional, for extra tang

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Knife

Method
 

  1. Place the frozen pineapple chunks and ice cubes into your blender.
  2. Add the lime juice to the blender for a bright, tangy flavor.
  3. Secure the lid and start blending on low speed, gradually increasing to high.
  4. Blend until the mixture becomes thick, fluffy, and slushy, with a vibrant yellow color and a granular texture to the touch.
  5. Stop the blender and check the consistency, adding more ice if it’s too liquid, then pulse briefly to incorporate.
  6. Pour the frozen pineapple slushie into glasses, allowing the icy chunks to settle slightly for a textured look.
  7. Garnish with a lime wedge or fresh mint leaves if desired for an extra burst of freshness.
  8. Enjoy immediately as a cooling, tangy tropical treat with a crunchy, icy texture.

Notes

For a smoother texture, blend longer and ensure the pineapple is thoroughly frozen beforehand. Adjust the lime juice to taste for extra zing.
