Equipment

  • Cocktail Shaker

Ingredients
  

  • Ice enough to fill your glass
  • 4 oz pineapple juice fresh if you’re fancy, canned if you’re chill • 2 oz lime juice (fresh-squeezed, always)
  • 1 oz triple sec orange liqueur goodness
  • 2 oz tequila blanco or reposado — your vibe, your rules
  • Salt for rimming the glass
  • Fresh pineapple slices or lime wedges for garnish

Instructions
 

Rim It

  • Run a lime wedge around the rim of your glass, then dip it into salt. Instant margarita magic.

Shake It

  • In a cocktail shaker, add a handful of ice, pineapple juice, lime juice, triple sec, and tequila.
  • Shake it like you mean it — about 15–20 seconds — until the shaker gets frosty on the outside.
  • (No shaker? No problem. Stir it up in a mason jar with a lid or just swirl it really well in a glass.)

Pour + Garnish

  • Fill your rimmed glass with fresh ice. Strain your margarita over the ice.
  • Top it off with a juicy slice of pineapple or a bright lime wedge for major “I’m-on-a-beach” energy.

Sip & Repeat
