Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 units Ripe bananas
- 1 cup Strawberries
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 5 leaves Mint leaves
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin pieces.
Wash the strawberries thoroughly, remove the stems, and cut them into halves.
If using fresh pineapple, peel and core the pineapple and cut it into chunks. If using canned, make sure there are no added sugars.
In a blender, add the banana slices, strawberries, pineapple chunks, fresh orange juice, lemon juice, mint leaves, and water.
Blend the mixture on high speed until you achieve a smooth consistency. You may need to pause and scrape down the sides of the blender occasionally to ensure even blending.
Taste the mixture and adjust with more lemon juice if a tarter flavor is desired. If too thick, add a bit more water to reach the desired consistency.
Pour the blended mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container.
Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and freeze it for about 4-5 hours or until set.
Once frozen, let the fruit ice sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes before scooping to make serving easier.
Serve in small cups or bowls, garnished with fresh mint leaves if desired. Enjoy your naturally sweet, refreshing treat!
