I Pine for You Margarita

Last Friday night my guests partied like pineapples after sampling my ‘I pine for you’ Margarita.

Recipe:
35mls @tequila_blu infused with Jalapeño for 48hrs
20mls @cointreau_officiel
30mls Unsweetened pineapple juice (aldi)
30 grams frozen pineapple (@colessupermarkets)
15mls freshly squeezed lime juice
Mint

Place all ingredients in @thermomixaus on speed 9 until combined. Pour into your favourite cocktail glass rimmed with @Tajin. .

Nutritional information:
I am not a nutritionist or dietician- I have calculated these results based on research:
⏺Tequila 35mls 76.8 calories 0 carbs.
⏺Lime juice 15mls 4 calories 1.3 grams carbs.
⏺Frozen Pineapple 30 grams 16 calories, 3.4 grams carbohydrates.
⏺Cointreau 20mls 62.6 calories & 4.6 grams carbohydrates
⏺Pineapple Juice 16 calories & 3.7 grams carbs

TOTAL: 175.6 Calories 13 grams carbohydrates
.
If you want to reduce the calories and carbs, reduce the Cointreau to 15mls and omit the frozen pineapple. I have tried this and it is also delicious. It reduces to 144 calories and 8.5 grams carbs. Salud!

Today is the final day of my Skinny Margarita Challenge… and the scales are now slowly becoming my friend again 👍🏽
