PINEAPPLE JALAPEñO MARGARITAS RECIPE
Steps:
- Cut one jalapeño into thin slices. Combine 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar with 1 teaspoon of water in a small, nonstick skillet. Heat over medium flame until sugar is melted, and the mixtures is lightly golden. Add the jalapeño slices, and cook, shaking the pan frequently until peppers are fully coated, and the syrupy mixture is deep golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a fork, transfer the jalapeños to a parchment-lined plate.
- Split the remaining jalapeño in half. Add it to a small pot with 1/4 cup sugar, lime juice, and 1/4 cup water in a small pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until sugar is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from burner, and let cool completely. Discard the jalapeño pieces.
- In a shallow bowl or small dish, combine the remaining teaspoon of sugar, salt, and smoked paprika.
- Use the lime wedge to swipe around the rim of four rocks glasses. Dip the rims in the paprika-sugar-salt mixture, shaking off any excess.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the lime-jalapeño syrup, pineapple juice, tequila, and Cointreau. Shake until beads of sweat form on the outside of the shaker.
- Fill the glasses with ice cubes. Divide the cocktail between the glasses. Garnish each with a pineapple wedge and a few pieces of candied jalapeño. Serve immediately.
