Instructions
- Pour some salt or sugar on a plate. Rub a lime wedge around the edge of a glass. Roll the rim of the glass in the salt or sugar to coat the rim.

- Strain into the prepared glass. Garnish with a piece of pineapple and a slice of lime.
Notes
Make it a mocktail: Use a zero-proof spirit that mimics tequila, like Seedlip Grove 42 or Ritual tequila alternative, in place of the tequila. For the triple sec, use orange juice or a non-alcoholic orange liqueur like Lyre’s Orange Sec. If you don't have these alternatives, you can omit the tequila and triple sec, and increase the amount of pineapple juice and lime juice to taste. You can also add a splash of soda water for fizz.
Make it skinny: Instead of triple sec, use a splash of orange juice. Use less agave nectar or substitute your favorite sugar-free option.
