💡 Notes & Tips

  • If not thick enough or you don't have frozen pineapple, add a little more ice or a 1/4-1/2 teaspoon of xanthan gum at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Homemade light coconut milk: 1 cup full fat canned coconut milk + 1-3 cups cold water (1:1 most creamy, 1:2 lighter, 1:3 best for drinks/macros). Homemade light pineapple juice: 1 cup pineapple juice + 1 cup cold water. For a more pineapple-forward flavor, use a pineapple flavored Greek yogurt.
