Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
½ cup fresh blueberries

Liquids and Spirits

2 oz tequila
1 oz triple sec
1 oz fresh lime juice
½ oz simple syrup

Other

Salt for rimming
Ice

Instructions

Prepare the glass: Rim the edge of your serving glass with salt by moistening the rim with lime juice and dipping it into salt. This adds a complementary savory note to each sip.
Muddle the fruit: In a shaker, muddle together the fresh pineapple chunks and blueberries until well crushed to release their juices and flavors.
Add the spirits and mixers: Pour in the tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup to the muddled fruit in the shaker to blend the cocktail’s base.
Shake with ice: Add plenty of ice to the shaker, then shake vigorously to chill the mixture and fully combine the flavors.
Strain and serve: Strain the cocktail into the salt-rimmed glass over fresh ice to keep it cold without diluting the flavors immediately.
Garnish: Add a few pineapple chunks and fresh blueberries on top as a colorful and tasty garnish to finish the drink.

Notes

Use fresh fruit for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
Adjust the amount of simple syrup based on your desired sweetness level.
Rimming the glass with salt is traditional but can be skipped if preferred.
For a frozen version, blend all ingredients with ice instead of shaking.
Tequila blanco works best for a clean, crisp taste.
