Delicious homemade Dole whip garnished with fresh mint and strawberries. Perfect for summer.

Ninja Creami Dole Whip

Ninja Creami Dole Whip is my favorite way to bring that iconic tropical frozen treat home without the theme park line. Frozen pineapple, full-fat coconut milk, honey, and a little lemon juice spin together into something smooth, light, and genuinely bright with real pineapple flavor. It's naturally dairy-free and sweetened with honey or maple syrup, which makes it an easy yes for almost any crowd. I love making it all summer for cookouts, pool days, and warm evenings when I want something cold and a little fun.

Instructions

  • Blend all ingredients until completely smooth.
    4 cups frozen pineapple chunks, 1 cup full-fat coconut milk, 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, Pinch of salt
  • Transfer the mixture to a Ninja Creami pint container and freeze until completely solid.
  • Spin using the Smoothie Bowl setting until smooth and creamy.

Notes

Here are a few tips I've picked up to help you get the best results every time.
Use full-fat coconut milk: The higher fat content is what gives the Dole Whip its rich, creamy texture. Light coconut milk will produce a icier, less smooth result.
Shake the can well: Full-fat coconut milk can separate in the can, so shake it thoroughly before measuring to get a consistent blend.
Don't skip the lemon juice: It brightens the pineapple flavor significantly and keeps the Dole Whip from tasting flat or overly sweet.
Blend until completely smooth: Any remaining chunks of frozen pineapple before freezing will affect the final texture of the dessert after spinning, so keep blending until the mixture is silky.
Freeze completely before spinning: The Ninja Creami needs a fully frozen pint to work properly. If the center is still soft, the machine won't be able to create that smooth, airy consistency you're looking for.
Store properly: Freeze in the Ninja Creami pint for one to two weeks. Before digging into leftovers straight from the freezer, always re-spin on the Smoothie Bowl setting. It takes the texture from icy back to that signature soft-serve creaminess instantly.
