Pineapple Dole Whip Instructions
Add the pineapple juice first, and then the ice cream and frozen pineapple chunks to your blender. (I, of course, use and recommend the Instant Pot Ace blender).
Blend until smooth. (I used the ‘smoothie’ setting on the Instant Pot blender.)
Add the star tip coupler to the piping bag.
Pour the blended ingredients into the piping bag and pipe a swirl of Dole Whip into an ice cream dish.
While I successfully achieved a true Dole Whip texture, some people have found that the key to the perfect consistency is freezing the Dole Whip mix for at least 3 hours before serving.

Add all of the ingredients in a pot and bring them to a boil. (I used my Instant Pot on the sauté setting to bring the ingredients to a boil.)
Reduce to a simmer (if using an Instant Pot, turn it off) and whisk until the sugar melts.
Remove the mixture from the heat.
Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to cool.
Use a strainer to strain out the watermelon pieces, and then pour the mixture into a jar with a lid.
Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
