Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass (optional)

Place a tall pint glass or beer glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill with ice and cold water for 2 minutes, then dump the water. A chilled glass keeps the beer colder longer.

2

Add 4 ice cubes to the chilled glass. Using ice is optional — many prefer this drink without ice to preserve carbonation, but ice helps keep the whiskey cold and slightly dilutes the combined drink.

3

Pour 1.5 oz Jack Daniel's into a mixing glass with a couple of ice cubes and stir gently for 10–15 seconds to chill and slightly dilute the whiskey. Alternatively, you can add the whiskey directly to the glass without pre-chilling.

4

Strain the chilled whiskey into the prepared pint glass over the ice (if you pre-chilled in a mixing glass).

5

Open a 12 oz Bud Light and slowly pour it down the side of the glass so it layers gently with the whiskey and preserves as much carbonation as possible. Pouring slowly reduces foaming.

6

If you prefer a slightly sweeter, smoother mouthfeel, stir gently once with a bar spoon or long spoon to combine the beer and whiskey. Do not over-stir — just 2–3 slow turns.

Garnish & Serve

7

Garnish with a lime or lemon wedge on the rim if desired. Squeeze a little into the drink only if you like a citrus lift.

8

Serve immediately while the beer is still carbonated. Sip carefully — the combination is stronger than beer alone.
