Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita Recipe

Happy National Margarita Day!

Did you know that was even ‘a thing’? Well, whether you’re a Margarita Day pro or a complete newbie to this tequila-tastic celebration, you’re in luck because I’ve got the perfect recipe to help you celebrate in style!

Hi everyone, Christin from Blue Crab Martini here, and I’m excited to be celebrating National Margarita Day with you here on Cristy’s beautiful blog. Today I’m sharing a Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita recipe. It’s a sweet and spicy twist on the classic cocktail that’s sure to please your palate.

If ever there was a holiday worth celebrating it’s National Margarita Day (because, let’s be real … anything involving tequila is worthy of a little fiesta)! Traditional Margaritas are made with tequila, lime juice, and triple sec. Although that’s quite tasty, it’s fun to spice things up a little and give new flavors a try.

This Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita has just the right balance of sweet and spicy. Pineapple juice gives the drink a bright, fresh, and fruity flavor while the jalapeno offers just a hint of heat. Those ingredients, combined with three different liquors, makes for one seriously delicious drink!

Whether you’re celebrating National Margarita Day with a quiet evening at home or hosting a big ol’ tequila-infused par-tay, make sure you mix up a batch of these Pineapple Jalapeno Margaritas. This recipe is designed to make one drink, but you could easily increase the ingredients to make a whole pitcher … that would really get the party started!
