Tropical Bliss Dole Whip: A Refreshing Escape in Every Scoop

Ingredients

Fruit Base

• 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
• 1 cup frozen mango chunks
• 1 ripe banana, sliced (optional for extra creaminess)

Creamy Component

• 1 cup full‑fat coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup

Sweetener & Flavor

• 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
• ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• Pinch of sea salt

Toppings (Optional)

• 2 tablespoons toasted coconut flakes
• Fresh mint leaves, torn
• Sliced kiwi or additional mango for color

Instructions

Blending & Adding Creaminess

1. Pulse the Fruit. Start the blender on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high. The goal is a coarse slush, not a puree, so you retain a light, airy texture. Stop and scrape down the sides once the mixture looks uniform.
2. Incorporate Coconut Milk. With the blender still running, slowly drizzle in the coconut milk. This creates an emulsion that binds the fruit without making the mixture heavy. The mixture should become glossy and slightly thick.
3. Add Sweetener & Vanilla. Drop in honey (or agave) and vanilla extract. Blend for another 20 seconds until the sweetener is fully dissolved and the flavor is evenly distributed. Taste and adjust with a tiny extra splash of lime if needed.
