Congratulations, Mr. President

It took a little digging, but I managed to find this aptly named drink on the White on Rice Couple blog. This adorable twosome concocted a delicious sip by incorporating a few of the qualities of our 44th President: pineapple juice from his home in Hawaii, the brightness of lime, and the spice of chili to mirror his fire. Cheers, Mr. Obama!

2 oz. Gin
2 oz. Pineapple Juice

Add ingredients into a shaker, crush the chili inside of the shaker. Add ice, then shake vigorously for 15 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass, garnish with a lemon twist, raise it to your dreams, and drink.
