Pineapple Chicarita

  • Level: Easy
  • Yield: 1 cocktail
  • Total: 5 min
  • Active: 5 min
The Chicarita is one of our signature cocktails at my restaurant Chica. I love the citrus notes in this beverage, as they complement any meal. I use tequila blanco to complement the smokiness of the pineapple. Not many people know that my middle name is Margarita—so combine the name of my restaurant with Margarita, and you’ve got the Chicarita!
