- 2 tablespoons coarse salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

- 2 heaping cups of ice cubes

Instructions
- First combine the salty rim topping. In a small bowl toss together salt, sugar, and chili lime powder. To rim the glasses, use a lime wedge to moisten the rim of each glass. Dip the dampened rim of each glass into the salty mixture just before you’re going to fill the glasses with margarita.
- To make the margarita, in a strong blender combine ice cubes, frozen pineapple chunks, as much jalapeño as you feel comfortable with followed by lime juice, tequila, triple sec, and orange juice.
- Blend to smooth, very smooth.
- Immediately pour into prepared glasses, garnish with lime wedges or circles and enjoy every bit.
- Serves 4 generously, 6 slightly less generously
