Spicy Pineapple Margarita
This Spicy Pineapple Margarita is sweet, tangy, and perfectly spicy, with fresh jalapeños for heat, a spicy rim for a zesty kick, and plenty of crushed ice to keep it cool and refreshing. If you are craving a little heat with each citrusy sip, this will be your go-to cocktail! I love how the pineapple juice pairs with the bright lime—it’s so well-balanced and downright delicious!
