Spicy Pineapple Wedges Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the tequila, agave, pineapple, cilantro and chile pepper in a large shaker; muddle with the end of a wooden spoon.
• Add the pineapple juice, lime juice and triple sec to the shaker and fill with ice. Cover and shake vigorously for 15 seconds. Strain into 2 rocks glasses filled with ice. (Rim the glasses with salt, if desired.) Garnish with the pineapple wedges and more chile pepper.

Steps:

• Quarter the pineapple lengthwise. Using a thin, sharp knife cut core away from each wedge by making a shallow slice the length of the pineapple. Follow the skin of the pineapple and cut the fruit away from it using your knife, keeping the green tops attached. Next, cut pineapple into 1/2-inch slices. Each quarter pineapple will now hold several wedges. Separate fruit by sliding wedges alternately to the left then to the right. Each completed pineapple serving will look like a boat filled with the fruit slices.
