1. Prepare the pineapple by peeling and dicing it into small cubes. Measure out 2 cups and place them into a large mixing bowl.

2. Dice the Roma tomato into small cubes and add it to the bowl with the pineapple.

3. Finely dice half a red onion and mince one small jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat if desired). Add both to the mixing bowl.

4. Chop the cilantro and measure out 1/4 cup. Add it to the bowl with the other ingredients.

5. In a small separate bowl, whisk together the tequila, fresh lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until the honey dissolves completely.

6. Pour the tequila-lime mixture over the salsa ingredients in the large bowl. Gently toss everything together until evenly combined.

7. Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or lime juice if desired.

8. Cover the salsa and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

9. Serve chilled or at room temperature with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, grilled chicken, fish, or pork.
