Pineapple Granita Ice Recipe
I have always been a pineapple lover. I really love pineapple. When we moved to Hawaii many years ago, we used to take frequent trips to the DOLE® pineapple plantation so that we could always have fresh pineapple in the house. To this day, we buy a few pineapples and DOLE® Canned 100% Pineapple Juice every single time we go grocery shopping. We frequently cook with pineapple and we add the juice to a lot of our favorite recipes, like teriyaki chicken. Our Pineapple Chicken Satay Appetizer Recipe is one of our most popular. Pineapple juice is so delicious, versatile and very easy to cook with. In fact, just replace water with DOLE® Canned 100% Pineapple Juice and your recipe will instantly get better. We hope that you love this Pineapple Granita Ice Recipe.
