The Pineapple Dole Whips are a quintessential Disney snack and one of our favorite treats at Disneyland. We LOVE Disneyland, and all their amazing food, which is why we make so many Disney resort copycat recipes.
Sometimes the line for the Dole Whips is longer than some of the lines for rides because it is the perfect treat on a hot day!
If you are feeling the need for the famous pineapple treat without having to go to Downtown Disney, you can make this new Dole Whip recipe at home.
Recipe Ingredients:
- Pineapple: get a bag of frozen pineapple chunks for the Dole Whip treats texture to be perfect
- Ice cream: uses plain vanilla ice cream from the freezer aisle to mix for the original flavor
- Juice: you will need to use a combination of fresh lime, lemon juice, and pineapple juice
Recommended Equipment:



How To Make Dole Whips
- Puree frozen pineapple in a blender. It works best if it is partially thawed. To that, add the ice cream, lime juice, lemon juice, and half (only 6 ounces) of the pineapple juice.
- Blend together until it is well mixed.
- Freeze the mixture for about 2 hours to set up.
- Scoop into glasses or bowls and pour the remaining pineapple juice over each serving.
- We found it made about 3 servings, but you can easily double or cut the recipe in half.
Expert Tips:
- When you want to have a Dole Whip day at home, make sure to use the Dole Whip float the same day.
- To be sure you get the classic pineapple Dole Whip flavor, use ice cream with a vanilla flavor. But you can change it to another fruit flavor if you want to experiment.
Frequently Asked Questions for Making This Dole Pineapple Whip:
For this recipe, we recommend serving it as soon as you make it or serving it after it set up for 2 hours, especially where it is so quickly thrown together and only takes a few minutes to make.
You could make it ahead of time, but it will not be as creamy.
If you plan to make it ahead of time, we recommend freezing it in an airtight container and not waiting more than 24 hours to eat it.
We also recommend serving it as a float with soft-serve ice cream, if you are making and serving the next day. But again, this is recommended to serve fresh and quickly after blending.
For the best result, you will want to use frozen pineapple, or the pineapple float will be too liquidy and not like you would get at the Disney parks.
Just pop the fresh pineapple in the freezer for a few hours and you are good to go!
