Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup canned pineapple chunks (drained)
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
For Topping
- Whipped cream
- Maraschino cherries (optional)
- Toasted coconut flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients: vanilla ice cream, pineapple chunks (drained), coconut milk, whole milk, and honey if using. Ensure the pineapple chunks are well-drained to prevent excess liquid.
- Blend: Add the ice cream, pineapple chunks, coconut milk, whole milk, and honey into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Taste the milkshake and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey.
- Serve: Pour the milkshake into chilled glasses to keep it cool longer. Top each milkshake with a generous swirl of whipped cream.
- Garnish: Add a maraschino cherry on top and sprinkle toasted coconut flakes for extra flavor and texture, if desired.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately with a straw to enjoy the fresh, tropical flavors at their best.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute vanilla ice cream with a dairy-free alternative and use plant-based milk instead of whole milk.
- To make it boozy, add 1–2 ounces of white rum before blending for an adult twist.
- If you prefer a thicker milkshake, reduce the amount of milk or add extra ice cream to achieve your desired consistency.
