Instructions

Step 1: Blend the Pineapple Layer
Add frozen pineapple, juice, and lime juice (if using) to the blender.
Blend until smooth and slushy.
Pour into a glass or bowl and set aside in the freezer while you make the second layer.

Step 2: Blend the Strawberry Layer
Rinse the blender, then add strawberries, water or juice, and honey/maple syrup if needed.
Blend until smooth and slushy.
Keep the texture thick so the layers don’t melt too fast.

Step 3: Layer and Swirl
In serving glasses, alternate spoonfuls of pineapple and strawberry slush.
Use a spoon or straw to gently swirl for a marbled effect—don’t overmix.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Top with fresh mint, fruit slices, or a sprinkle of coconut.
Serve immediately with a wide straw or spoon.

Notes

Use Frozen Fruit – It gives the perfect thick, icy texture without extra ice.
Chill Your Glasses – Helps keep slushies colder longer.
Balance Sweetness – Taste and add honey or maple syrup only if needed.
Don’t Over-Swirl – A few turns give that beautiful marbled look.
Make it Tropical – Add mango, passion fruit, or banana to either layer.
