Ingredients
- Fresh pineapple
- 4 cups, chopped
- Granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup
- Water
- 1/2 cup
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your pineapple. Cut the fresh pineapple into chunks and measure out 4 cups.
- In a blender, combine the chopped pineapple, granulated sugar, water, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more sugar.
- Pour the pineapple mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes.
- Once churned, transfer the sorbet to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
- When ready to serve, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
- Serve the pineapple sorbet in bowls or cones, and enjoy the refreshing taste of summer!
Tips
- For an added twist, consider mixing in a splash of coconut milk for a creamier texture.
- You can also experiment by adding fresh mint leaves during blending for an extra layer of flavor.
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes until firm.
