This Spicy Pineapple Jalapeno Mezcalita is a refreshing cocktail made with pineapple, cilantro, jalapeño, and mezcal. A delicious drink with sweet, spicy and smokey flavors all at the same time.
0 Place Mezcal in a glass or a jar. Add in the jalapeño slices and let it steep for 15-20 minutes. The longer it sits the spicier it will get. If you like it spicier, feel free to let it sit longer.
1 Gently muddle cilantro in a large glass just enough to release its essential oils. Add in the orange liquor, lime juice, and agave nectar and stir to combine. Strain it into a cocktail shaker.
2 Strain the jalapeño-flavored Mezcal into the shaker and discard the jalapenos. Add pineapple juice to the same shaker. Add fresh ice, put the lid on, and shake for 15 seconds.
3 When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice and pour the drink over. Garnish with fresh pineapple, a few slices of jalapenos, and fresh cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.
