The perfect sweet and tangy cocktail. This pineapple margarita recipe is easy, classic, and bursting with flavor.
Guys, I love myself a good margarita. Lots of fresh citrus, that perfect balance of quality tequila, barely any Cointreau, shaken with ice, and all the salt. There is almost no occasion inappropriate for a margarita.
So please, get some citrus, pineapple, and tequila and do me the favor and sip away of this easy, fresh cocktail on Friday night.
