If you're hot from being out in the humidity, this treat is the one for you! I had been wanting to use more of my herbs that I have been growing all summer and saw a cooking show on filling ice cube trays with a variety of juices and sodas. The pineapple was still warm and the ice treat melted quickly. It was still tasty but I would have liked to savored the treat more. It melted too fast. The next time I will have the pineapple at room temperature and the shaved ice made ahead , so you can just pull the ice treat out of the freezer to be scooped and dolloped on the fruit.
Fill ice cube trays with any fun flavored soda. I made mine with ginger beer and fresh thyme. Freeze for several hours till set. Remove and put ice in a food processor for a few seconds till it is like shaved ice. Store in freezer until ready to use. Meanwhile, grill fresh sliced pineapple until browned and soft. Set aside to cool at room temperature. Scoop out shaved ice and put on a slice of grilled pineapple.
lovely !
