Pineapple sorbet is a refreshing and delicious dessert that is perfect for hot summer days. But did you know that adding a bit of rum to your dessert not only imparts a delicious flavour but also keeps it from freezing solid? The alcohol in rum doesn't freeze, so your dessert will remain creamy no matter how long it stays in the freezer.
Ingredients
Pineapple juice
½ cup(s), (125ml)
Frozen pineapple
450 g
Fresh ginger
1 tbs, (2.5cm piece), grated
Rum
2 tbs, dark variety

In high-powered blender or food processor, add pineapple chunks, juice, ginger, and rum and blend on high speed until pineapple is completely smooth and no chunks remain.

For creamy consistency, divide sorbet among bowls, garnish with mint (if using), and serve immediately. For granita-like consistency, transfer sorbet to an airtight container. Cover and freeze for 6 hours or overnight. Using a fork, scrape sorbet into bowls.
