Blending limes, skins and all, is a genially simple way bring out the flavor wonderfully in a nice cold cerveza.
Grab some of you favorite Mexican cervezas and let’s get started! This couldn’t be any simpler.
Wash and quarter up your limes and throw them into your blender.
Skin, seeds and all. Add about 1/4 cup of water to help it along until it’s smooth.
Now you have two choices. You can use the puree as is or strain it, pushing it through a strainer so you just have the juice. It’s like orange juice, some people like the pulp and some don’t -so it’s up to you…but we chose the pulp.
Take a spoonful or two of the limeade puree and add it to the bottom of your beer glass.
Top it with your favorite cerveza and drink up.
Repeat.
Repeat.
And repeat again.
There are 6 of them waiting for you in that pack…unless your making these with your better half, and then you only get three.
