instructions to Make Pineapple Drink
Step 1
Let’s start making this easy recipe. Drain the crushed pineapple and reserve 2 tbsp. of juice. Set aside.
Step 2
Place pineapple, lemon juice, lime juice, sugar and reserved juice in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Blend just a bit longer than you think you need to ensure it won’t be lumpy.
Step 3
Pour into a gallon zipped freezer bag and store flat in the freezer for about 1-1/2 hours until it becomes a slushy consistency.
Step 4
In a large bowl, gently fold the pineapple mixture into a Cool Whip until blended. Return to the freezer for about 1 hour until completely frozen.
Step 5
Scoop the ice cream into a glass and fill the rest of the way with your juice. Fancy it up with sprinkles, fruit, whipped cream, or anything else your little hearts desire! Now your sweet treat is ready!
