Ingredients Serving: 2

Pink Dragon Fruit /Pitaya – 1
Sugar – 1 tblsp (Adjust to taste of Pitaya)
Water – If needed
Calamansi/Small Lime – ½ piece or ½ tsp juice extracted

Instructions

Cut the dragon fruit into two parts and remove the flesh from the outer skin.
Roughly chop the dragon fruit flesh.
Take a mixer and add dragon fruit, sugar and calamansi.
Blend it once and check if water is needed to make it a smooth paste. My dragon fruit was ripened properly hence I never used it.
Blend for 5 to 6 minutes. This time is needed because we are not using icecream maker and we are using a normal mixer.
Transfer it to a container and freeze it for a minimum of 8 hours or overnight.
Before serving take out and keep it for 10 minutes else it would be difficult to scoop.
