What happens when you’re as obsessed as I am about ice cream and summer sneaks up the craving for piña coladas…well you do what I did here and put them together and you get…piña colada ice cream! It’s the perfect balance between being a kid and an adult all into one frozen and sweet treat. You can choose to keep this strictly for adults and throw in a tablespoon of Malibu Coconut Rum or leave it out so that it’s kid friendly. Either way this is a summer dessert you don’t want to miss making!
Piña Colada Ice Cream
Ingredients
4 cups heavy cream
1 3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 cups Mr. & Mrs. T’s Piña Colada Mix
3/4 cup pineapple chunks, plus additional for topping
1/3 tsp coconut shreds for topping
1 tbsp Malibu Coconut Rum (optional)
Prepare
1. Heat heavy cream and sugar in a small sauce pan until all sugar has dissolved.
2. Place cream mixture in fridge and allow to cool for an hour.
3. Once cream has cooled place in blender along with Piña Colada mix, pineapple chunks, and Malibu Coconut Rum if using. Blend to desired consistency. I blended mine for a few second to leave behind some smaller, bite sized pineapple chunks.
4. Place mix into ice cream machine and set to make according to manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Serve with coconut shreds, additional pineapple chunks, and a sunny little drink umbrella, if desired. Enjoy!
