This week we have been prepping for a very special Disney party which you will be hearing more about next week. In order for me to get ready for such an event I have been trying different recipes and decorating (you can see a sneak peak below).
We have never been to Disneyland, but I know there is a special treat there that everyone loves called a Dole Whip. They sound divine, and if you search for one on Pinterest there are about 100 different ways to make them at home. However, because I like things to sipped through a straw and I already had some fresh pineapple in the house for brinner (breakfast for dinner) and cream (for some homemade ice cream) I thought why not try whipping up my own version.
I know adding cream to a shake sounds kind of decadent, but I didn’t add any ice cream, so I feel like it was kind of a wash.
Fresh Pineapple Whip Shake (make two medium sized shakes)
3/4 to 1 cup cup fresh pineapple cut into chunks
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup milk
1/2 of a lemon squeezed
1 tsp sugar (optional)
lots of ice
In a blender add all the ingredients and blend until smooth.
Serve in a large glass with a straw.
I have a feeling everyone will like these a lot!
