Instructions
Creating this Orange Dole Whip is a breeze, much like the leisurely afternoons I spent learning to cook with my abuela. Let’s dive into this straightforward process.
- In a blender, combine the frozen orange juice concentrate, coconut milk, and granulated sugar. Blend until well combined.
- Add the vanilla extract and ice cubes to the blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, similar to soft-serve ice cream.
- If you’re feeling adventurous, throw in the orange zest for an extra burst of citrus flavor. Blend briefly to mix.
- Taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary. You may add more sugar or a dash of milk to achieve your desired consistency.
- Scoop the Orange Dole Whip into bowls or cups. Serve immediately for the best texture.
