Ingredients
Scale
Fruit:
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
Liquid Base:
- 1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1/2 cup ice cubes
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 tablespoon honey or sweetener of choice (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine frozen pineapple chunks, frozen blueberries, chilled milk, ice cubes, preferred sweetener, and a splash of vanilla extract into a high-powered blender.
- Pulse the mixture initially to break down larger frozen pieces, then blend on high speed for 30-45 seconds until achieving a silky, uniform consistency with no visible fruit chunks.
- Transfer the vibrant purple-yellow frappuccino into a chilled serving glass, creating a smooth swirling motion to showcase the mixed colors.
- Optional: Crown the beverage with a dollop of fluffy whipped cream for added indulgence and visual appeal.
- Serve immediately while the frappuccino is frosty and refreshing, using a wide straw to fully enjoy the fruity blend.
Notes
- Swap dairy milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk for a vegan-friendly version that maintains the creamy texture.
- Freeze fresh pineapple and blueberries in advance to intensify the fruity flavor and create a thicker consistency without additional ice.
- Adjust sweetener levels gradually to suit personal taste, using honey, stevia, or agave as alternatives to traditional sugar for a healthier twist.
- Garnish with fresh blueberries or a pineapple wedge to elevate the visual appeal and add a burst of fresh fruit flavor to the frappuccino.
