- 2 ounces tequila blanco or reposado
- 1 ounce lime juice from 1-2 limes
- ¾ ounce Cointreau
- pineapple for garnish, optional, wedges
- 1 tablespoon tajin seasoning or more as needed

Instructions
- Slice the limes and squeeze out enough juice to measure 1 ounce. Reserve
- Rim the glass with a wedge of lime and dip the edge into 1 tablespoon Tajin to rim the glass.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add 3 ounces pineapple juice, 2 ounces tequila blanco or reposado, 1 ounce lime juice, ¾ ounce Cointreau. Secure the lid and shake for 30 seconds until the margarita is frothy and the shaker is icy cold.
- Add additional ice to the rimmed cocktail glass and pour the pineapple margarita over the ice. Garnish with a slice or wedge of pineapple sprinkled with a little Tajin. Enjoy.

Notes
- For a more dramatic presentation, we grilled our pineapple slices at 400° for 3-4 minutes per side and sprinkled with Tajin. The fresh pineapple leaves also make a pretty garnish (though they're spiky, so watch out!)
