A simple and tasty concoction, but watch out for "brain freeze" if eating it too fast!?? I placed frozen fresh pineapple chunks, a 6 fl. oz. can of pineapple juice, and about a third of a cup of water in a Vitamix blender, but the resulting slurry was so thick that it overcame the blender! ?? I had to clear it several times using a table knife, only to get just a little further the next time. The recipe can easily benefit from double the Amaretto amount, too. Like 4 tsp, rather than 2 tsp. I'm giving this three stars because of the blending challenge and adjustments necessary.
