Ingredients

Servings
  • kosher salt for rim
  • ice cubes
  • 3/4 cup lime juice from about 8 limes

  1. Add a few tablespoons of salt to a shallow plate. Flip over the glasses and dip the rim in the simple syrup and then immediately transfer to the plate of salt. Repeat with the remaining glasses. Next, drop a few ice cubes into each glass; divide the simple syrup and lime juice amongst them. Lastly, top each drink with a healthy amount of beer. Stir and serve.

  • Tips and Tricks: 
  • Batch cocktail prep. This isn't a batch cocktail BUT if you do want to save some time, feel free to squeeze your lime juice before. You can keep it in a pitcher so guests won't have to mess with squeezing their own limes.
  • Tajín Rim. If you want, use Tajin to rim the glasses with instead of salt.
