- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup tequila
- 1/2 cup triple sec
- 1 oz lime juice
For Garnish
- Margarita sugar (for rimming glass)
- Fresh pineapple slices (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Blend the Ingredients: Combine the frozen pineapple, orange juice, tequila, triple sec, and lime juice in a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and fully mixed to achieve a slushy texture.
- Prepare the Glass Rim: Dip the rim of each glass in water and then immediately dip it into margarita sugar to create a sweet, decorative sugar rim.
- Add Garnish: Optionally place a slice of fresh pineapple on the rim of each glass for an attractive garnish that complements the drink.
- Serve: Pour the blended margarita into the prepared glasses and serve immediately to enjoy the cocktail at its freshest and coolest.
Notes
- You can use fresh pineapple chunks if frozen pineapple is unavailable, but chill the mixture well before serving.
- Adjust the amount of triple sec and tequila based on your preferred strength.
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit the tequila and triple sec and replace with additional orange juice or pineapple juice.
- Ensure the blender can process frozen fruit smoothly to avoid chunks.
