If you are looking for a shaved ice recipe, this one is super easy and healthy. You only need two ingredients: your favorite fruit and milk. In addition, you’ll need a simple tool for shaving.
What You’ll Need
- Fruit of your choice. I used green grapes.
- Milk of your choice. I used Silk vanilla soy milk.
- A tool for shaving. I used Manba Ice Shaver and Snow Cone Machine. Instead you could use a grater or zester.
How to Make Shaved Ice with fruit
First, choose the fruit. Since I used green grapes, all I needed to do was rinse them off well under cold running water.
Next, place the grapes on a baking sheet or container. Just use something that will fit in your freezer.
Freeze the grapes or other fruit for at least 2 hours.
After 2 hours, place the frozen fruit into the ice shaver. With the Manba, you just need to pour the grapes in, put the lid on top, and turn the handle to shave the fruit.
After all the grapes have been shaved, scoop the contents into a serving dish. Top off with milk of choice. I used Silk vanilla soy milk.
Enjoy!
Variations
You can use any fruit you would like to make shaved ice.
Here are some other ideas:
- mango
- strawberries
- mandarin oranges or cuties
- raspberries
- blueberries
- blackberries
- watermelon
- bananas
- kiwi
- honeydew melon
- pineapple
- plums
- cherries
- coconut
- lychee
You can use any milk atop the shaved ice with fruit. Traditionally, condensed milk is used. Since I wanted to keep it lighter, I used vanilla soy milk.
Here are some other lite milk options:
- vanilla almond milk
- pistachio milk
- oat milk
- coconut almond milk
- rice milk
- hemp milk
Make Ahead & Storage
The fruit can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer to 6-12 months.
