Instructions

Step 1: Rub a lime wedge around the rim of a rocks glass and dip it into coarse salt to coat evenly. Fill the glass with fresh ice cubes.
Step 2: In a cocktail shaker, muddle 3 jalapeño slices gently to release heat without overpowering.
Step 3: Add 2 oz blanco tequila, 1.25 oz fresh pineapple juice, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz agave nectar to the shaker along with ice cubes filling it to the brim.
Step 4: Shake vigorously for 15 seconds until the shaker is frosty cold.
Step 5: Double strain into the prepared rocks glass to avoid jalapeño seeds.
Step 6: Garnish with a thin pineapple wedge and a single jalapeño slice floated on top for visual heat.
