Method
- Gather all your ingredients: fresh pineapple chunks, ice cubes, honey or agave syrup, and lime juice if using.
- Add the pineapple chunks to your blender along with the ice cubes.
- Pour in the honey or agave syrup, and squeeze in the lime juice for a bright, tangy note.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed for about 30-40 seconds, until the mixture is thick, frosty, and smooth, with no visible chunks.
- Pause briefly to check the texture; it should be creamy and icy, similar to a soft-serve consistency.
- Taste the slushie and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a bit more honey and blending briefly to incorporate.
- Pour the vibrant, icy mixture into glasses, allowing some slush to overflow slightly for a fun presentation.
- Serve immediately with a small straw or garnish with a slice of pineapple for a refreshing tropical treat.
