Method
- Prepare the Pineapple Slushie: In a high-powered blender, combine the 2 cups of frozen pineapple, 1 cup of pineapple juice/water, and honey (if using). Blend on high until a thick, smooth, **viscous consistency** is reached. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides several times. Set aside in a bowl and place in the freezer.
- Prepare the Strawberry Slushie: Rinse out the blender. Add the 1.5 cups of frozen strawberries, 0.5 cup water/milk, and lime juice (if using). Blend until smooth and thick, adding only small splashes of liquid if needed to help the blades move.
- Remove the pineapple slushie from the freezer. To create the swirl effect, use a spoon to scoop alternating layers of the pineapple slushie and the strawberry slushie into a serving cup, gently turning the spoon against the side to create streaks.
- Alternatively, place both slushie mixes into separate piping bags and pipe alternating vertical stripes into the cup for a cleaner swirl.
- Serve immediately with a spoon or thick straw. Note that homemade slushies melt quickly!
Notes
For a richer, creamier texture, replace the water/juice with coconut milk in both blends. Use less liquid overall for an extremely thick, soft-serve consistency.
