Blend the Base: Combine frozen pineapple, milk, lemon juice, lime juice, sugar, and salt in a blender. Involve any eager little helpers by letting them add the pineapple chunks. Blend on high until the mixture achieves a smooth, soft-serve consistency.
Adjust Consistency: If the mixture is too thick, gradually add more milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired thickness without compromising the whip’s creaminess.
Serve with Flair: Transfer the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a star tip and swirl into serving bowls or glasses. No piping bag? A zip-top bag with a corner cut off works well as a substitute.
Add Whipped Cream: For an extra touch of indulgence, top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream.
Variations & Tips:
Tropical Twist: Incorporate a bit of coconut extract or a handful of shredded coconut for those craving tropical flavors.
Banana Alternative: For a lighter version, substitute whipped cream with a frozen banana, blending it with the other ingredients for a creamy, dairy-free option.
Sweet Toppings: Elevate the sweetness with a drizzle of caramel or pineapple syrup before serving.
Frozen is Key: Use frozen pineapple chunks to achieve the signature creamy texture of the whip.
Enjoy Fresh: This dessert is best enjoyed immediately. However, if needed, freeze any leftovers and re-blend before serving to restore its creamy consistency.
