TROPICAL TEQUILA COCKTAIL

Ree uses frozen mangos and strawberries to flavor this cocktail, which is served in a hollowed-out pineapple. However, you can use any frozen fruit that takes your fancy and, if you don't have a pineapple to hollow out, a glass will do just as well for serving!

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large pineapple
1 cup frozen mango
1 cup frozen strawberries
2 tablespoons cream of coconut
6 ounces tequila
2 limes, one juiced and one sliced into rings
Fresh fruit for garnish, such as strawberries, pineapple and cherries

Steps:

  • Trim the top off the pineapple, then halve the pineapple crosswise. Use a spoon to hollow out the two halves, saving the flesh and discarding the core. Set the hollowed-out halves aside to use as cups later.
  • Add the reserved pineapple flesh to a blender with the mango, strawberries, cream of coconut, tequila and lime juice. Top with 2 cups of ice and blend until smooth.
  • Pour the cocktails into the hollowed-out pineapple halves. Skewer the fresh fruit, including the lime slices, to use as garnish.
