The Best of Both Worlds
Why choose between beer and a cocktail when you can have both — at the same time.
When cocktail lovers want a beer, do they have to settle for one or the other? No! A Frozen Modelorita offers the best of both worlds, the combination of a classic frozen margarita paired with a Modelo Especial beer to make a summer drink that is simply irresistible.
Did you know that Modelo became the best-selling beer in America last year? There has been an increase in demand over the past few years for imported beer, and Modelo, with its cool, crisp flavor, has met it.
Beer served with a squeeze of lime has always been a favorite thirst-quencher on hot summer days. Pairing a beer with a classic frozen lime cocktail simply takes it over the top. The first time I tried a Frozen Modelorita, I was thrilled by the mix of bright, fresh flavors in this eye-catching cocktail.
For this drink, you make a frozen margarita with tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice and crushed ice. Rim the glass with some salt or sugar before sliding a bottle of beer into your frozen cocktail to make a showstopping Modelorita. It makes for a crisp and refreshing drink.
As you sip this concoction through a straw, the beer from the upside-down bottle is released slowly into the glass, making a deliciously balanced blend as you enjoy your cocktail. Serve the drink with extra wedges of lime. Summer never looked so fun or tasted so good!
