Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 oz Tequila
- 1 oz Orange liqueur (such as Triple Sec or Cointreau)
- 1.5 oz Fresh lime juice
- 0.5 oz Simple syrup
- 6 oz Light beer (lager or Mexican beer preferred)
- 1.5 cups Ice cubes
- 1 piece Lime wedge
- 2 tbsp Kosher salt
- 1 piece Orange slice (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the glass by running a lime wedge around the rim. Dip the rim into a small plate of kosher salt to coat. Set aside.
In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, orange liqueur, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup.
Fill the shaker with 1 cup of ice cubes. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and blend the ingredients.
Strain the mixture into the prepared salted glass filled with the remaining 0.5 cups of ice cubes.
Pour the light beer over the cocktail mixture, gently stirring to combine without losing the carbonation.
Garnish with a lime wedge and orange slice. Serve immediately and enjoy your Sunkissed Beergarita!
