Three Cocktails for St. Patrick’s Day!
Are you planning on throwing a St. Paddy’s day party?
Well, if you serve corn beef, cabbage and potatoes,
what beverages will you serve?
Shots of whisky? Or will it be regular bottles of beer?
Boring! Why not serve beer cocktails?
Beer cocktails, what are they?
You just turn lagers and ale into trendy drinks.
Doing so, will leave your guests in awe and begging for more.
First up, is a beer cocktail that’s a combination of sweet & sour.
And it’s called a Beer-Garita!
The lime in this cocktail is what makes it sweet & sour.
To make:
Dip the rims of 6 glasses in lime juice, then salt; and some Ice.
In a blender, puree 12 oz. of frozen lime juice concentrate, 1 cup of
tequila and 1/3 cup of Cointreau. (a triple sec). Add three (12 oz.)
bottles of lager. Pour into the 6 glasses.
Next up, is a beer cocktail that’s spicy.
And it’s called Michelada!
If you or any of your guests are fans of Bloody Mary’s, they’ll certainly
enjoy this classic Mexican drink.
To make:
Dip the rims of six glasses in lemon juice, then celery salt or (regular salt).
In an Ice-filled pitcher, mix 16 oz. tomato juice, 1/4 cup of sliced jalapenos*,
1 oz. of Worcestershire sauce and 1 oz. lime juice; stir. Pour into the six glasses;
top with 3 (12 oz.) bottles of lager.
* Jalapenos- If you don’t want your cocktail too “spicy,” then you may want to
remove the seeds.
And last up, is a beer cocktail that’s citrusy.
And it’s called Orange Shandy!
A cocktail that’s boosted with fruit flavor, that will excite your taste buds.
To make:
In a pitcher, combine 18 oz. of water, 12 oz. of orange juice and 1/3 cup
of sugar; stir. Pour into 6 glasses. Top with 3 (12 oz.) bottles of pale ale.
Garnish with sliced oranges and a few dashes of bitters.
That’s it- 3 unique and different beverages to serve this St. Paddy’s
day and long after the holiday.
