You can make a pitcher of these for a crowd, or just a single drink for yourself. Or a pitcher for yourself, nobody's judging :)
They have a sweet, salty, spicy heat that screams summer, but with an unexpected, mischievous twist. And tequila. Really, do you need any more convincing than that?
--------------------------------------------
(WHAT YOU WILL NEED)
1 59-ounce container of "Pineapple Orange" juice (I use Dole)
(it lives in the refrigerated section of my grocery store, by the produce)
1 1/2 or 2 cups of your favorite tequila
1 or 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, unseeded, sliced into thicker wheels
fresh pineapple, cut in bite-size chunks
kosher salt
ice
pitcher
Note: I garnish each drink by itself, because if you add the sliced jalapenos to the pitcher, the drink becomes too spicy as it sits, and the pineapple will break apart.
Mix container of juice and tequila in pitcher and keep cold until ready to serve.
Rim glass with salt, pour drink over ice, add jalapeno slices and pineapple to your drink and serve.
