Fresh, fun, and a little fiery, this drink is a good time in a glass.
2 ounces tequila blanco
2 ounces pineapple juice
1 ounce sweet and sour mix
3–4 slices jalapeno
Muddle jalapeno slices slightly with ice. Add tequila, pineapple juice, and sweet and sour mix. Stir and top with ice. Garnish with a pineapple leaf and jalapeno slice.
With locations in Cary, Raleigh, and Durham, La Buena Vida is not just a restaurant — it’s an experience. The casual and family-friendly daytime atmosphere is rooted in culture, hospitality, and family tradition. At night, La Buena Vida turns into an energetic destination experience. Think shots delivered by airplane, servers clad in El Chapo masks, and tomahawk steaks served in bedazzled suitcases.
