As summer gears up into full swing, there’s nothing better than a cold, refreshing cocktail. Specifically, a beer-garita, or beer margarita. They’re made with a combo of Mexican beer such as Corona, tequila triple sec, lime juice, and agave. Not sweet, not too intense, just crisp, cold, and refreshing. I make them by the pitcher, which conveniently serves a group. If you’re making these for a backyard get-together or event, it’s so convenient because you don’t need to get up every time someone needs a refill to make another drink.

Never made a margarita with Corona? Trust me, it’s good! For this super easy pitcher cocktail recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:
Tequila Triple sec Lime juice Agave syrup or nectar (or simple syrup) Beer (I used Corona) Sugar or salt, for glass rims if desired
