Sweet and spicy fans, rejoice! This cocktail combines the subtle spiciness of fresh-cut jalapeños with the sweet fruitiness of pineapple juice and Deep Eddy Peach Vodka, balanced by fresh citrus and a bit of simple syrup. Adjust the spiciness by increasing or decreasing the quantity of jalapeño. The perfect drink to transition from spring into summer!
