Pineapple Mastani has a beautiful combination of flavored milkshake and ice-cream with several toppings like chopped dry fruits, tutty fruity and cherries. This dessert originated in city of Pune situated in Western part of India in the state of Maharashtra. Every time we visited Pune, we would make it a point to have mastani dessert.

Mostly mastani is made using mango flavor. But I always wanted to experiment with pineapple and once my experiment was successful, I couldn’t wait to share it with all of you. And it is very easy to make.

Though mastani is a huge dessert that does not mean that it is a strenuous one. It is a very undemanding and uncomplicated recipe. A worthy addition to my Dessert collection that includes Multi-layered Choco Cake Shake, Kolhapuri Ice Cream Cocktail, Biscuit Pudding among others.

About Pineapple Mastani

I have made pineapple milk shake from scratch. To make this shake I used homemade pineapple crush rather than store bought. I highly recommend you to do the same for the best results. The ingredients and recipe that I have given is best for making 1 cup of pineapple crush.

Pineapple is citric in nature. After cutting some citric fruits tend to become bitter if left out unprocessed or not consumed immediately. To prevent this, I cook the pineapple in sugar and keep it in the freezer allowing me to use it as and when needed. Sugar acts as a preservative and keeps pineapple in good condition for several days. For this recipe, I have made a fresh batch that I use in the assembly of the dessert. While cooking pineapple I have not added lot of sugar as the pineapple I had was naturally sweet. But sometimes pineapple can be very tangy in taste. Adjust the sugar quantity accordingly. But take care to not overcompensate and make it too sweet.

While assembling the dessert, you can experiment with the toppings. I have used a combination of dry fruits, tutti-fruity and green jelly. Generally, jelly is optional for this dessert, but you can be as creative as you like. I have added green jelly as it provides a beautiful contrast to yellow color of the pineapple milk shake and white of vanilla ice cream. Green jelly makes a beautiful pop up color and I personally love it.

So, try out this recipe and let me know if this was your tummy to heart moment…
