Pineapple Sherberita


My favorite drink is a margarita.  I love the classic lime, but I am also a huge fan of other fruit flavored margaritas.  In the summertime frozen margaritas are a must.  This one is so refreshing.  It's made with fresh pineapple and pineapple sherbet.  This recipe can be made with any kind of fruit or sherbet. 


Pineapple Sherberita

3 oz silver tequila
3 oz orange liqueur
4 scoops pineapple sherbet
1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
2 tbs lime juice
2 cups ice cubes
pineapple, cut into wedges for garnish

In a blender combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth.  Then pour into glasses and garnish with a wedge of fresh cut pineapple.  This recipe makes two drinks.

A couple other good summertime cocktails are my Raspberry Sorbet-tini or a Mango Sherberita.

  1. Yay! First to comment! Margarita is one of my favorite kind of drink, next to Boracay. I just love drinking them in oversized margarita glasses. The pineapple sounds refreshing and tropicana feel. I love it with some coconuts..

  6. Tequila goes straight to my head with its high alcohol content..Still this looks very summery and refreshing..probably cause you gave a tropical twist with the addition of pineapple chunks and sherbet..Maybe I will have one swig or two.. Happy weekend!

  11. Exotic drink! Can be intoxicating too! I can imagine sipping this drink on a beach on a hot summer night! Heaven!

  12. Bo, I love every ingredient in this so I know this would quickly become one of my favorites.. Pineapple sherbert was my all time favorite as a child and I, like you, think margaritas are fabulous. But I have a feeling it will sneak up on you with the orange liqueur in it.

  19. Brilliant brilliant idea! I grew up loving sherbet more than regular ice cream- kind of like 'Scream scream for sherbet cream'! Okay that was cheesy...and I guess I never read the containers, because my sister and I say 'sherbert' LOL

  44. Sorry it has taken me so long to get back with all of you. It has been a rough week...I'm exhausted! Everyone thanks for your comments.

    @ Bunny,
    I thought you might like this one.

    @ Diane,
    Sherbet is just ice cream...I don't even know the difference...so you could just sub ice cream...vanilla would be fine if you couldn't find pineapple.

    Chef E,
    That is how I say it too...If it wasn't for the container...I couldn't have spelled it right.

    Linda,
    You might sub pineapple juice for the alcohol and double the lime to cut the sweetness.
