Beer

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill and prep glass

    Place the beer in the refrigerator until well chilled (about 1–2 hours beforehand). If you prefer a salted rim, run a cut lime around the glass lip and dip into coarse salt to coat lightly.

  2. 2

    Cut lime

    Cut the fresh lime in half. Reserve one wedge for garnish. From the remaining half, cut a small wedge or slice to squeeze into the beer.

Assemble the Drink

  1. 3

    Fill the prepared highball or pint glass with ice (about 1 cup). Large cubes will chill without over-diluting; crushed ice will make the drink colder faster.

  2. 4

    Carefully open the chilled imported lager and pour slowly down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation, filling about three-quarters of the glass (about 9 oz).

  3. 5

    Squeeze the juice from the small lime wedge into the beer (approximately 0.5–1 tsp of juice) and drop the squeezed wedge into the glass if desired for extra aroma.

  4. 6

    Top off gently with the remaining beer to reach about 12 oz if needed, pouring slowly to avoid excessive foam.

  5. 7

    Garnish the rim with the reserved lime wedge and serve immediately.
