Notes
- Optional Variations
- Optional Variations
- Add a Floater of Grand Marnier like my Skinny Cadillac Margarita.
- Combine Fruits - Doesn’t a frozen pineapple mango margarita or frozen strawberry pineapple margarita sound like a dream? Feel free to get creative with other fun fruit add-ins to customize your libations.
- Go Virgin - Swap out the tequila for pineapple juice for a fresh and fruity mocktail everyone will love.
- Get Smoky - Try making a grilled pineapple margarita by grilling your fruit and letting it cool before adding it to the blender. You can also make a pineapple mezcal margarita for a similar smoky profile.
- Fire & Ice - Make a pineapple jalapeño margarita so your frozen cocktail has a little extra tongue-tingling spice. Simply add a few slices (or all!) of a fresh jalapeño to the blender in addition to using jalapeño-infused tequila. YUM.
- Pineapple Margarita on the Rocks - Not in the mood for a Dole Whip margarita? Simply mix ¼ cup each of tequila blanco, fresh lime juice, and pineapple juice, then pour over some beautiful floral rocks in two Tajin-rimmed glasses. Feel free to add a splash of lemon-lime soda for an extra touch of sweetness!
