SPICY PINEAPPLE MARGARITA😍

Y’all it’s Friday eve and it’s been a WEEK, so you know what that means - we’re makin margz. This is a spin off my classic OG Tio Carlos’ Margarita, but made spicier and more tropical because duh why not. The subtle spiciness from the serranos, sweetness from the pineapple, all rounded out with fresh lime juice, it’s the perfect combo to send you right into the weekend. You’re gonna love this!
