Expert Tips

  • Blend Well: Thoroughly blend the ingredients in a high-powered blender to get that smooth and creamy texture.
  • Sweeten to Taste: The sweetness can vary depending on your strawberries, pineapple, and protein powder, so taste your Dole Whip before serving and adjust the sweetener as needed to make it just right for you.
  • Texture: If your Dole Whip is too thin, add a few more frozen strawberries or pineapple chunks and blend again to thicken it up. Or, you can place it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before serving. If your Dole Whip is too thick, you can add a splash of almond milk and re-blend.
