Beer Margaritas

So this recipe is from an Websuite party from the good ole college days and recently from a now infamous Dos de Mayo party. I think everyone can agree - they are amazing.

I normally do not do margaritas, but these are so light and the beer really cuts into the tequila so I don't instantly get a headache...

Ingredients

• 1 (12oz.) can frozen limeade concentrate
• Tequila
• Sprite/Soda Water 
• Beer (preferable a Corona, Tecate etc.)
• Ice
• Lime slices (for garnish)

Directions

In a pitcher empty limeade. Using the can as a guide fill with tequila, then empty into pitcher. Add the bottle of beer and stir till the limeade till dissolved. Pour over ice, top off with soda water or sprite and garnish with a lime.

If you don't like margaritas, I promise these will change your mind.
