# How-To Steps:
01 - Add frozen strawberries, frozen banana, pineapple juice, coconut milk, maple syrup, and lemon juice if using to a high-powered blender or food processor.
02 - Blend on high speed, stopping occasionally to scrape down sides, until mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
03 - Taste the mixture and add additional maple syrup or agave if desired sweetness level is not achieved.
04 - Serve immediately for soft-serve texture, or transfer to freezer-safe container and freeze 30–60 minutes for firmer consistency. Scoop into bowls or cones to serve.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Tastes exactly like that theme park treat but costs about a dollar per serving
- Ready in ten minutes flat when summer heat hits hard
- Naturally dairy free but nobody will believe it is not ice cream
02 -
- A regular blender might struggle so let the fruit soften for five minutes or use a food processor instead
- Serve this immediately because it melts faster than traditional ice cream
- The frozen banana is non-negotiable for getting that creamy texture everyone loves
03 -
- Freeze your fruit in a single layer on a baking sheet first so you do not end up with one giant strawberry ice block
- Pre-chill your blender bowl for five minutes to keep everything frozen longer during blending
