Notes
You can substitute coconut milk with any plant-based milk or extra pineapple juice.
Add a frozen banana to the pineapple blend for extra creaminess.
For an adult version, add a splash of rum or vodka to the pineapple layer.
To store, freeze blended layers separately and thaw slightly before re-blending for later use.
