Frozen yogurt is ice creams slightly healthier, and just as delicious cousin. There are many frozen yogurt shops all over the world, but everyone knows that when you make something at home, even something with sugar, it is still bound to be healthier. What is amazing about frozen yogurt is that you can make it with only a few simple ingredients that you probably already have at home, and a food processor! Here is a great base with some tasty add-ins to make the frozen yogurt of your dreams.

Base

The base to every one of these frozen yogurt flavors is 1/4 cup of plain greek, full fat, or non-fat yogurt and 2 tablespoons of honey or agave nectar. Once you have that, you can make any one of these flavors! Just make sure that with each batch, you process it until it is very smooth and transfer it to an airtight container for the freezer.

While these are certainly the most common locations in which pineapples are grown, many are surprised to find out that some of the world’s most delicious pineapples are cultivated on the Portuguese island of Sao Miguel, located in the Azores island chain in the Atlantic Ocean.

Pineapples are not native to this island, but the island’s favorable and stable climate allows for the tropical fruit to be grown in an oceanic, non-tropical location.

The only difference between traditional pineapple farms and the pineapple farms on Sao Miguel are that the pineapples grown here must be raised in greenhouses.

These greenhouses trap the heat produced by the sunlight on the island, raising the temperature to a sufficiently high level which favors the cultivation of the fruit.

Azoran pineapples are smaller than traditional pineapples, but don’t let their size fool you. They are extremely sweet and are considered a delicacy that is served as a dessert in Portugal.

If you ever have the chance, be sure to try an Azorean Pineapple and experience the delectable, tropical sweetness that comes from a place that isn’t even in the tropics!
