It has been a hot minute but forgive me I have been on vacation. Finally able to cross the border and travel, so I have been sunning myself in Florida for the past three weeks. And yes Pineapple Margarita’s have been a constant menu item. Plus seems pretty appropriate to be sharing this fun recipe this week in celebration of Cinco de Mayo.

Summer Cocktails

Sampling tasty cocktails poolside has been a glorious way to celebrate my return to travel. Sipping cocktails poolside and sampling all the unique liquor (spirits) we can buy in the US of A. Margarita’s have always been a huge hit in our family but Pineapple was not something I had tried in the past. A little sweet but totally refreshing.

Creaing tis refreshing drink is managed in a few simple steps. Basically pour, mix, shake and pour. It is like ready set go. If your are not an on the rocks person, pull out the blender and crush it all together. My personal preferece is the frozen but Kent likes on the rocks the best.

1. Add a couple ice cubes into a cocktail shaker.
2. Pour in tequila, triple sec, simple syrup & pineapple juice.
3. Shake well.
4. Coat the rim of a glass with lime juice and roll in margarita salt.
5. Pour the pineapple margarita’s.
