Oh, these summer nights need to be savored, and there are few better ways than to sip margaritas outside in its warmth. My usual go-to is a regular margarita, frozen or over ice with a little salt on the rim. But my new favorite is definitely this refreshing tropical pineapple margarita recipe. This frozen margarita is really so easy to make! Just pop the ingredients into a blender and give it a whirl. You've got a tall glass of frozen heaven in your hand in about five minutes.

Next time you have a lovely warm evening to enjoy with friends or family whip up a batch of these tropical pineapple 'ritas and see how fast they disappear! The best way to have them ready to go is to have some simple syrup in the fridge already ready. Check in Recipe Notes for the easy directions.

To make these sweet, tart frozen cocktails you will need frozen pineapple chunks, ice, tequila, limes for juicing, simple syrup and either Cointreau, Grand Marnier or Triple Sec. The ingredients are whirled together in a blender then poured into glasses. And while you enjoy alcohol in moderation, it's nice knowing you get the health benefits of pineapple as you sip. Cheers!
