Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks peeled and cored
  • 1 cup crushed ice
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup adjust to taste

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Method
 

  1. Slice the fresh pineapple into small chunks and place them in the blender.
  2. Add crushed ice to the blender, covering the pineapple chunks.
  3. Pour in a tablespoon or two of honey or simple syrup to bring out the sweetness.
  4. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until the mixture is smooth and icy, about 30-45 seconds. You want a thick, slushie consistency.
  5. Stop the blender and check the texture; if it's too thick, add a splash of water or juice and blend again briefly.
  6. Pour the pineapple slushie into chilled glasses, allowing the vibrant yellow and icy texture to shine through.
  7. Garnish with a small slice of pineapple or a sprig of mint for a colorful touch.
  8. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy the cool, tangy burst of tropical flavor.

Notes

Adjust sweetness and ice consistency to preference. For a grown-up version, add a splash of rum or coconut liqueur.
