If you don’t have a high-speed blender, you will have to add a little extra liquid, which will still result in delicious pineapple margaritas, it just might not be as thick.
2. Make sure the pineapple you use isn’t sour. You will be able to taste the sourness as the pineapple is the main star in this recipe, so test the frozen pineapple before you use it.�?It’s also key to use frozen pineapple and not fresh fruit. This is what adds to the slushiness along with the ice. Use fresh fruit to garnish the fruity margaritas.
3. If you want a spicy pineapple margarita, add a jalapeño. This will change the colour of the blended pineapple margarita but the taste will be amazing. Use your discretion when deciding how many seeds to add.
4. The best way to enjoy the frozen margaritas is right away, as soon as they are blended. This is not a recipe to enjoy the next day.
