![]() Jalapeño simple syrup – I use a really basic simple syrup recipe here. Any unflavored sparkling water or mineral water would work here, but I prefer the taste and carbonation of Topo Chico! It is simply the best! That said, I used to make this recipe with Italian sparkling mineral water before I discovered Topo Chico during my time living in San Antonio and it was still perfectly delicious. Topo Chico – Because you aren’t shaking these margaritas up individually, you need help getting a bit of dilution before these margs go over ice in a serving glass. Of course you can treat your guests to a much nicer tequila if you prefer, but that’s totally up to you! I’ve only ever tried this recipe with blanco/silver tequila, but I bet it would be tasty with a reposado too. Tequila – Because this is a big batch cocktail, I usually go for a bottle of tequila in the $20-$25 range. Pineapple juice – This is the number one mixer in these margaritas, so be sure to get one you actually like! It doesn’t really matter if it’s the kind in a can, in a carton, or in a jug…just be sure to get one that doesn’t have added sugar because you won’t need it when you also have jalapeño simple syrup joining the fiesta! The spice hits you a little in the back of the throat but doesn’t punch you in the face – just the way I like a spicy drink! Ingredients and Substitutions I personally used 2 sliced peppers in the pitcher for about 3 hours before serving it up, but I also liked what happened to the leftovers after sitting overnight. Or you can keep the heat more mild in the first place by just using some sliced jalapeño in the pitcher for a few hours before serving. If you overdo it, you can always cool things down with more pineapple juice (and tequila). You’ll get the most heat from letting the peppers soak in the tequila overnight. Second, you need to slice up an extra pepper or two to stick in the pitcher. Big Batch Pineapple Jalapeño Margaritasįirst, you have to make sure you get enough jalapeños in the simple syrup to get the heat to come through.If you’re interested in seeing any particular product recommendations, comment below!
