My #creative journey w/a #JimmyBuffett twist began w/my ‘08 “Seaside Margaritas” #sketch. Inspired by his legendary song, “Margaritaville,” my inaugural ode was a pitcher of frozen #margaritas at a beachside bar w/an El Chico garter glass. The pitcher looks like it’s about to tip over—maybe a happy customer bumped the table! I had fun w/this one. I look forward to creating more whimsical goodies like these.

An oldie but goodie for #AnimalHour -- since it seems to be #bear season, here's the bear that was seen in a hot tub drinking the homeowners #margaritas about 5 years ago (either Altadena or Monrovia) #wildlife #hottub https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJGZi4aj6NM
Pineapple Jalapeño Pitcher Margaritas (makes 4 ish servings)
Jalapeño Simple Syrup Ingredients
- 1/2 c. granulated sugar
- 1 c. water
- 1-2 jalapeno peppers, sliced
- 1 2" long strip of lime peel
For the Pineapple Pitcher Jalapeño Margaritas
- 1 c. blanco tequila
- 3/4 c. pure pineapple juice
- 1/2 c. orange liqueur
- ice, as needed
Garnish, optional
- 1 tbsp coarse sea salt
- 1/4 tsp chili powder
- lime wedges
- jalapeño slices
- fresh mint sprigs
For the Jalapeño Simple Syrup:
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, jalapeño & lime peel. Bring to a rolling simmer over medium-high heat & cook, stirring frequently, until the sugar has completely dissolved. Reduce to medium-low & continue simmering, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. Remove from heat & set aside to cool for at least 20 minutes.
Once cool, strain syrup into a large measuring cup, through a fine mesh strainer. Discard jalapeño peppers & lime peel. Set syrup aside until needed.
For the Pineapple Jalapeño Pitcher Margaritas:
In a large pitcher combine the tequila, pineapple juice, lime juice & orange liqueur. Pour in all of the simple syrup & stir well to combine.
Add a few slices of jalapeño & a few wedges of pineapple into the pitcher if desired.
Garnish (Optional):
To salt the rim of the glasses, combine the salt & chili powder in a shallow dish. Run the edge of a lime around a glass, then dip the glass into the chili salt combination. Fill glasses with ice, then pour margarita mix on top. Garnish with a pineapple wedge,
a few jalapeño slices, and a sprig of mint and serve.
You can easily double his recipe if you want a larger pitcher of margs. I adapted this recipe & figured out the measurements that work for me, but feel free to adjust spice, flavor, and mixture to your liking.
It’s sorta like those places that offer breakfast at any time except this is front porch happy hour in the Paleozoic. (with apologies to Steven Wright).

I tried making #margaritas recently, and though it's a faff to juice the limes they're really good! The salt-rimmed glass makes for a great little bit of flair. #cocktail #cocktails
Today’s list of three positive things that I like, enjoy, and/or am grateful for:
1) Modern medicine
2) Hanging out with my mom
3) Margaritas
