Chiles and pineapple? Believe it or not, this sweet/spicy mix is insanely refreshing in drink form.

  • Delicious and refreshing! I muddled it all with my meat tenderizer in a big bowl 😂that’s a lot to muddle! And only used two habaneros, which was plenty spicy for me, and I love spice/heat. Would be great made into a margarita on the rocks or with a little vodka.
