Spicy Pineapple Margarita

Ingredient:
3 slices fresh jalapeño pepper (about 1/4 inch thick each) plus additional slice for garnish, if desired
2 oz tequila (I prefer agave tequila in this drink)
2 oz lime juice
2 oz Triple Sec
2 1/2 oz pineapple juice
Salt and cayenne pepper for glass rim, if desired
Ice, cocktail shaker, and a wooden spoon (for muddling the pepper)
Method:
Rim the glasses with coarse salt and cayenne pepper, if desired. Quantities aren't super important here, but you really won't need much cayenne. A shake or two is enough for about 1/4 cup of salt. Dip the glass rims in water, lightly shake to remove any excess, and dip into the salt mixture. Set aside.
Add the jalapeño pepper slices and tequila to the cocktail glass. Muddle with wooden spoon and set aside for 15 minutes or so (to allow the pepper flavor to absorb into the liquor).
Fill cocktail shaker about halfway full with ice. Add the lime juice, Triple Sec and pineapple juice. Shake vigorously for 20 to 30 seconds.
Strain into glass. Garnish with a thin slice of jalapeño pepper, if desired.
Enjoy!
