Recipe By Slurrp

Tequila & Lime Grilled Pineapple is a delicious and refreshing dessert that combines the sweetness of pineapple with the tangy flavors of tequila and lime. The pineapple is marinated in a mixture of tequila, lime juice, and brown sugar, then grilled to perfection. The heat of the grill caramelizes the sugars in the pineapple, creating a sweet and smoky flavor. Serve this tropical treat on its own or as a topping for ice cream or yogurt.
