Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
- 1 medium Ripe banana
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 slice Pineapple slice (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel and chop the banana into smaller pieces for easier blending.
If using fresh pineapple, cut it into chunks, removing the tough core and skin. For canned pineapple, simply drain the liquid.
In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, banana pieces, coconut milk, and ice cubes.
Add honey, if desired, for extra sweetness, and vanilla extract for flavor depth.
Blend everything on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, add a little more coconut milk and blend again.
Taste the frappe and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey.
Pour the frappe into glasses and garnish with a fresh pineapple slice if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical goodness!
