Ingredients
2cupsfresh pineapple chunks
1teaspooncayenne pepper
1tablespoondark brown sugar
5ouncestequila
juice of 2 large limes
1tablespoonfresh orange juice
pinchof salt
Instructions
Heat oven to 425 degrees.
Spread the pineapple in an even layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment. In a small bowl, whisk together the cayenne and brown sugar. Sprinkle the mixture over the pineapple. Roast for 15-20 minutes or until the pineapple is golden brown.
Allow to cool to room temperature.
When the pineapple is cool, place it in a blender with the tequila, lime juice, orange juice and salt. Puree until smooth. Transfer the mixture to the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Strain the mixture, if desired. (I did not strain, I like to keep the consistency thick like a smoothie.)
Divide the margarita mixture between four ice filled glasses and serve immediately.
