This Pineapple Margarita recipe combines sweet pineapple juice, tangy lime juice, along with classic margarita ingredients to make a refreshing, tropical, summer cocktail!
An iced cold margarita on a warm summer day is one of the best things in life. If you’re a fan like me, then you must try my Avocado Margaritas, Cadillac Margarita, and Orange Margarita!
When it comes to pineapples, it seems like the times they are in season come and go too quickly. Well, I looked it up and pineapples are actually in season from March until July. I was surprised by this, because, I generally don’t think about yummy tropical fruits until summer months.
However, next March, you will definitely find me on my patio holding one of these delicious pineapple margaritas. I will likely be bundled up but in hopes that warmer weather is on the horizon.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add some spice to this Pineapple margarita?
Absolutely! This is definitely a sweeter margarita so if you are wanting some spice I would recommend adding in ½ of a jalapeno to your shaker and even Tajín seasoning to the rim of your glass!
Do I have to use silver tequila?
If you prefer a different type of tequila, such as reposado or añejo you can use that for this recipe, I would recommend silver or blanco tequila but any would work!
