Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

1. Prepare the Pineapple Puree: In a high-speed blender, combine the pineapple chunks and blend until completely smooth. Ensure there are no lumps for the best texture. (Approximately 2 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

2. Infuse the Flavors: Transfer the pineapple puree to a mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar and rum, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined. (Approximately 1 minute)

03

Step
3 mins

3. Add Creaminess: Gently fold in the heavy cream until it is evenly distributed throughout the pineapple mixture. This will give the sherbet a smoother, richer consistency. (Approximately 30 seconds)

04

Step
2 mins

4. Freeze the Sherbet: Pour the mixture into a shallow metal dish or baking pan. This will help it freeze more quickly and evenly. (Approximately 1 minute)

05

Step
3 hrs

5. Initial Freeze: Place the dish in the freezer for about 3 hours, or until the edges are frozen but the center is still slightly soft. (3 hours)

06

Step
5 mins

6. Break Up Ice Crystals: Remove the sherbet from the freezer and use a fork to break up any large ice crystals. This step is crucial for achieving a smooth and creamy texture. (Approximately 2 minutes)

07

Step

7. Final Freeze: Return the sherbet to the freezer for another 1-2 hours, or until it is completely frozen. (1-2 hours)

08

Step

8. Serve: Before serving, let the sherbet sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into chilled glasses or bowls and enjoy immediately.

For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the rum with 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice or coconut cream.
Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less brown sugar.
For a smoother texture, churn the sherbet in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions instead of using the freezer method.

    The brown sugar makes all the difference. It's so much better than using white sugar.
