Preparation Steps
Prepare the Charred Jalapeno
Using a grill or stovetop, char the jalapeno until the skin is blistered and blackened. Allow it to cool, then slice it open and remove the seeds for a milder flavor, if desired.
Muddle Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the charred jalapeno, smoked pineapple, and fresh cilantro to release their flavors.
Add Liquid Ingredients
Add the tequila, agave syrup, and fresh lime juice to the shaker.
Shake
Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and combine all ingredients.
Strain and Serve
Double strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass or over fresh ice in a rocks glass. Garnish with a sprig of cilantro or a slice of charred jalapeno.
