Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita Mocktail

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon Tajín seasoning
  • 1 lime wedge, for rimming glasses
  • 3 cups chilled pineapple juice
  • 1 cup chilled orange juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons agave nectar
  • 1 small jalapeño, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish
  • 2 cups chilled sparkling water
  • Ice
  • Pineapple wedges and lime wheels, for garnish

Directions

  1. Stir the kosher salt and Tajín together on a small plate. Run the lime wedge around the rims of your glasses, then dip the rims into the salt mixture and set them aside.
  2. In a pitcher, combine the lime juice, agave nectar, and sliced jalapeño. Press the jalapeño gently with a muddler or wooden spoon just until you smell the pepper, then stir in the pineapple juice and orange juice.
  3. Chill the pitcher until cold, or serve right away over plenty of ice. Just before pouring, stir in the sparkling water. Taste and add a little more lime juice if you want it sharper or a splash more pineapple juice if you want it sweeter.
  4. Pour into the prepared glasses and garnish with pineapple wedges, lime wheels, and extra jalapeño slices if desired.
