Instructions
In a blender, combine the fruit, coconut milk, sweetener, salt, and rum (if using). Blend on high until completely smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour into the frozen base of your ice cream maker.
Follow the instructions of your ice cream machine manufacturer. Churn until you have a frozen, soft-serve consistency. Serve as-is or freeze for an additional 4 hours for a scoop-able consistency. To freeze: transfer to a container and top with plastic wrap directly touching the ice cream. Wrap tightly to prevent freezer burn.
Notes
Mangoes: You will need 3 large mangoes, weighing approximately 2 1/2 pounds, for 3 cups of juices + flesh.Pineapple: You will need 1 large pineapple, weighing approximately 1 pound 12 ounces, for 3 1/2 cups flesh + juice.Banana: You will need 6 medium bananas, weighing approximately 1 pound 3 ounces; If you plan on making this flavor, please consider reducing the sweetness in the recipe to 1/4 cup. I've found that bananas are naturally sweet and require less sweetener than other tropical fruits.
