Ingredients

1 cup coconut cream (not coconut milk)

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup whole milk

⅔ cup granulated sugar

½ cup pineapple juice

¼ cup orange juice (preferably fresh)

Optional: splash of dark rum

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together coconut cream, heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar until sugar is fully dissolved.

Stir in pineapple juice and orange juice until the mixture is smooth.

Add a splash of dark rum, if using, and mix well.

Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until very cold.

Pour into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions, usually 20–25 minutes.

Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours until firm.

Scoop and serve cold. Let sit at room temperature 5 minutes for easier scooping.

Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, omit the rum.

Add crushed pineapple or toasted coconut flakes for texture.

Swirl in rum caramel or pineapple compote for a decadent variation.

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, freeze the base in a shallow dish, stirring every 30 minutes for a few hours.
