To celebrate Mexican Independence Day, our #Sunday Supper theme is Mexican Fiesta. Who doesn’t love a gooey, cheesy chicken enchilada, loaded nachos or a slushy margarita? I fell for these beer margaritas with my first sip at least a decade ago…and the method is so easy, you’ll have the recipe memorized with no effort.
Margarita purists my have some heart palpitations viewing the ingredients, but, I promise, these taste phenomenal. Use a light lager type beer…you don’t want any beer flavor. And watch out, these are potent!
Beer Margaritas…adapted from Gourmet LA
6 ounces frozen limeade concentrate
6 ounces beer, light, lager type preferred
6 ounces tequila
Lime slices, to garnish
Margarita salt, for glass rims, optional
To prepare salted glasses, dip edge of rim into water, then into a plate of margarita salt. Set aside.
Fill blender with ice. Add limeade, beer and tequila and blend till slushy. Pour into prepared glasses and garnish with a lime slice.
Serves 4.
