  • Total Time: 6 hours 15 minutes (including freezing time)
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1/3 cup maraschino cherries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1 tsp coconut extract
  • 2 tbsp pineapple juice (optional)
  • 12 tbsp white rum or 1 tsp rum extract (optional)
  • 23 drops red food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form using a hand mixer.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, drained pineapple, chopped cherries, shredded coconut, coconut extract, pineapple juice, and rum if using.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the fruit mixture until fully combined.
  4. Add a few drops of red food coloring for a pink hue if desired and stir gently.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, smooth the top, and cover.
  6. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.

Notes

  • Drain fruit well to prevent iciness.
  • Use real rum for a boozy version, but no more than 2 tbsp.
  • Add mango or papaya chunks for extra tropical flair.
  • For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream and plant-based condensed milk.
  • Let sit at room temp for 5–10 minutes before scooping.
