Milkjam Creamery - Lychee Pineapple

Lychee Pineapple - Lychee & Pineapple Sorbet
Today I return to the Minneapolis-based Milkjam Creamery for a flavor called Lychee Pineapple.  This flavor is a non-dairy sorbet made from lychee and pineapple.  A very tropical flavor!  I have had a couple of pineapple pints before, but only one other lychee flavor.  This should be fun.

Removing the lid shows that the sorbet is a beautiful bright yellow color.  Digging in, it definitely has a sorbet-like texture.  They did a pretty good job of churning it to make it as creamy as they could but it is definitely not as creamy as an ice cream.  The flavor itself is as bright and tropical as its color.  The pineapple is the more familiar flavor but I can definitely taste the lychee flavor in there as well.  This is a homogenous pint with no mix-ins.  The first spoonful is great.  There is a little bit of diminishing returns after that, but I am able to finish the whole pint in one sitting while still enjoying it at the end.

This is a fun and tropical sorbet.  Lychee & pineapple are not everyday flavors so it good to enjoy these when I have the opportunity.  Tropical flavors are especially fun in April as they make me look forward to summer. As with many fruit sorbets, you could argue that a single scoop is better than a whole pint.  So perhaps ration it out in single-scoop servings or share with friends.
