Pineapple Margarita

The Pineapple Margarita adds fresh pineapple juice to the usual Margarita recipe. I always expect pineapple to take over the flavor of a drink, but in this case the lime and orange give all that sweetness a nice, refreshing edge. And the agave flavor from the tequila adds some wonderful complexity.

This recipe serves 8, so it’s perfect for a party.

Recipe

• 2 cups lime juice
• 2 cups white tequila
• 2 cups Cointreau
• 2 1/2 cups fresh pineapple juice
• Fresh pineapple slices

Fill a shaker halfway with ice and pour in all the ingredients except the pineapple slice garnish. Shake for about half a minute and pour into eight glasses. Garnish with pineapple slices and serve.
