But, of course, just like with infusing the jalapeno tequila, you can skip this step too. Grilling the pineapple caramelizes the sugars in the pineapple and adds a yummy, smoky flavor to your spicy pineapple margarita. On to the grilled pineapple… Why Grilled Pineapple? If you still want a spicy margarita, but don’t have the time to infuse the tequila, just add a few slices of jalapeno to your cocktail glass and muddle them before adding the ice and your pineapple margarita mixture. Of course, if you’re not into heat, or if you’re short on time, you can always skip this step. Once it’s reached your desired heat level, strain out the peppers and store the jalapeno infused tequila in your freezer. The longer it steeps the spicier it will become, so I’d recommend tasting after the 12 hour mark.
Just slice up a jalapeno, throw it into a jar with the tequila and let it steep for 12-24 hours. This cocktail starts with jalapeno infused tequila – which is definitely not as difficult to make as it may seem. Vanilla Extract – This is optional, but I love the extra hint of sweetness it gives the drink.Agave Syrup – Or, simple syrup, maple syrup or honey.You can even use mezcal for a smokier cocktail. Silver Tequila – Or, use your favorite.So, I set out at recreating the recipe at home… Ingredients Needed Think butternut squash enchiladas, chipotle honey camarones, artichoke heart tamales – and amazing cocktails!īut now that we’ve moved across town, we don’t get to stop in too often, and I’ve been finding myself needing my pineapple jalapeno margarita fix.

And, I’m always game for a good margarita – like this Grapefruit Habanero Margarita or this Hibiscus Margarita.īut, this Grilled Pineapple Margarita may be my new favorite!
