1T Lime Zest, Freshly Grated

For the Beer Simple Syrup:
6 Budweiser Cans
2C Sugar
1 Cinnamon Stick
For the Gourmet Beergarita’s:
3oz Prepared Homemade Triple Citrus Margarita Mix, Chilled
2oz Silver Tequila
1oz Grand Marnier
2oz Prepared Beer Simple Syrup, Chilled
Crushed Ice
Corona Beer, For Topping
Mixed Citrus Sea Salt, For Rimming
Lime Wedges, For Rimming & For Garnishing
Directions:
1. For the Homemade Triple Citrus Margarita Mix: Combine all of the fresh citrus juice and zest into a pitcher until they are completely combined. Chill the margarita fruit juice mix in the refrigerator until cold.
2. For the Beer Simple Syrup: Add all of the ingredients into a pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the mixture has reduced by almost half. This will take about 45 minutes to an hour. Pour the simple syrup into a bottle and let it cool to room temperature. Once it has cooled, chill the syrup in the refrigerator until cold.
3. Assembling the Gourmet Beergarita’s: Fill a cocktail shaker with a little bit of crushed ice, and then pour in 4oz of the Homemade Triple Citrus Margarita Mix, 2oz Silver Tequila and Grand Marnier, and Beer Simple Syrup (we used our large jigger at home to make our drinks, so we followed a ratio of 4 shots of juice to 2 shots of tequila and triple sec to 1 shot of simple syrup… not exactly specific ounces, so keep that in mind). Shake hard to combine the cocktail. Next, rub a lime wedge along the rim of a tall glass and dip it into the Mixed Citrus Sea Salt. Add in a little bit of crushed ice into the bottom of the glass. Pour the strained liquid over the ice and fill the glass up to the rim with some Corona Beer. Stir until a frost forms on the outside of the cup.
4. Enjoy immediately!!
