PINEAPPLE SORBET
I know i shouldn't complain but it's been really hot in Los Angeles the last few days! It makes me so ready for the Summer. The sun stays out much longer, it's perfectly acceptable to wear flip-flops all day and people don't judge you if you eat FroYo for dinner.
I get a mean sweet tooth at times (as I mentioned here and here haha) and frequent trips to the FroYo shop can add up quickly (both in calories and the bank account). So I decided to take a shot at creating a frosty treat using one of my favorite flavors: PINEAPPLE. It's not Summer yet, but it sure feels like it!
Makes about 2 pints
- 1 ripe Pineapple (about 4 cups diced)
- 1-4 tbsp sugar (if your pineapple is really ripe, you can omit)
- 1/2 cup coconut water
- 1/2 vanilla coconut milk (optional - replace with more coconut water if you omit)
- Juice from 1 lemon
- Cut and cube your pineapple (save the outside of the pineapple for a fun serving idea!)
- Add all ingredients into blender and blend until creamy (about 3 minutes should do it)
- Pour into a glass dish and place into the freezer for 1-2 hours. At this point, you can use a ice cream machine to complete the process or add it back into the blender and blend again. Then place into the container you'll be storing it in and freeze an additional 5 hours.
