If a lager and a margarita had a baby, you'd have yourself a little Lagerita and although beer isn't a common ingredient in cocktails, you'll find this one right up there on the same refreshing scale as a shandy or michelada.
Start by adding your choice of tequila to the Hybrid Cocktail Shaker – we recommend the silver variety. Then incorporate your orange liqueur and fresh lime juice, as you would when making a classic margarita. If you prefer your drinks to be sweeter, you can also add in some simple syrup before shaking everything up.
Strain your marg mixture into a Hybrid Pint Glass over ice and top with Mexican lager. Modelo Especial melds everything together beautifully with its crisp, refreshing flavor. Sip slowly, smile and repeat.
