The sweetness of the pineapple tempers the tingle of the jalapeno.

And the rim of the glass?
Tip
In Mexico, youll often see it sprinkled over fresh fruit such as cantaloupe or mango.
I highly recommend giving it a try for your next brunch or cookout.

Dip the glass into the salt and give it a small turn or two to coat the rim.
Place the jalapeno and 3 tablespoons of the tequila into a pitcher.
This will infuse some of the tequila with the heat and flavor of the chili pepper.

If you want the heat to be stronger, continue to muddle and taste the tequila as you go.
The more your bruise the chili pepper, the more spicy flavor will work its way into the cocktail.
Add the remaining tequila, pineapple juice, orange liqueur, and lime juice and stir together.

Stir together and pour into the prepared glasses straight or over ice.
