- Honey, to taste (optional)
- Fresh fruit for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a blender, combine frozen pineapple chunks with pineapple juice and blend until smooth and slushy.

- Clean blender thoroughly.
- Combine frozen strawberries with strawberry juice and blend until smooth and slushy.
- Adjust sweetness with honey to taste.

Notes
For a vegan option, substitute honey with agave syrup or maple syrup. You can replace pineapple or strawberry juice with orange or apple juice for variation. Make ahead by preparing the two fruit bases separately and freeze until ready to serve; let sit for a few minutes before layering. If slush becomes too liquid, briefly re-blend with a few more frozen fruit chunks. For extra creaminess, blend in a little coconut milk.
