Instructions:
- Freeze the Pineapple: Start by cutting a fresh pineapple into chunks and freezing them for at least 2-3 hours, or until solid. This will give your margaritas a thick, slushy texture.
- Prepare the Glasses: Before blending, rim your margarita glasses with lime juice and dip them into coarse salt or sugar. This adds a fun and tasty touch to your drinks.
- Blend the Margarita: In a blender, combine the frozen pineapple chunks, tequila, triple sec (or Cointreau), fresh lime juice, and honey (or agave nectar). Blend until smooth. If you prefer a thicker consistency, add a handful of ice cubes and blend again.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste your margarita mixture and adjust the sweetness or tartness to your liking by adding more honey or lime juice as needed.
- Serve: Pour the frozen pineapple margaritas into the prepared glasses. Garnish with pineapple slices and lime wedges for a tropical touch.

Pro Tips:
- For an extra tropical twist, add a splash of coconut cream or coconut milk to the blender.
- If you don’t have time to freeze the pineapple, you can use fresh pineapple and add more ice cubes to achieve the slushy texture.
- To make a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the tequila and triple sec, and blend the pineapple with lime juice, a bit of water, and sweetener to taste.
So there you go, margarita enthusiasts! Frozen Pineapple Margaritas are the perfect way to bring a taste of the tropics to your Taco Tuesday and weekend celebrations.
