Pineapple Jalapeño Margaritas

With a little tangy, a little sweet, and just the right kick of spice-these margaritas are heaven! Dayne and I made these for cinco de mayo and they transported us right to the beach! We used fresh pineapple and muddled it with the jalapeño slices because thats what we had lying around. For convenience, we usually use canned pineapple juice, which works just as great. Whip these up for your next happy hour or enjoy them with this Mojo Carnitas Taco recipe. If you love this recipe, share it! Drop a comment below, follow on Facebook or Instagram, and Pinterest.
