HOW TO MAKE A PINEAPPLE MILKSHAKE

Throw a banana and a cup of fresh pineapple chunks in the freezer for an hour or so.

Blending frozen fruit with vanilla ice cream for a few minutes produces a creamy pineapple milkshake with the consistency of a soft serve.

For an adult version, a splash of coconut rum turns this delicious milkshake into a special frozen libation.

WHAT ARE THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF PINEAPPLE?

Get your fruit fix. Pineapple can be enjoyed so many ways. I love to mix it in salsas, spoon it over fish and enjoy it in desserts.

Can you freeze fresh pineapple?

Yes you can. Pineapple is easy to freeze. It first requires a bit of preparation.

You must peel, core and cut the pineapple into chunks or rings and place it into airtight containers or freezer bags.

I like to freeze a certain amount that I can grab when I need it leaving the rest in the freezer for next time.

Fresh pineapple can stay on the counter until it is cut and peeled. It can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.

How do I pick a fresh pineapple

As a pineapple ripens the outside will change from a green-gray to yellow, so as a general rule, the more yellow a pineapple’s exterior is, the riper it will be.

A pineapple that’s a golden-yellow color from top to bottom is ideal for picking.
