Cerveza Caliente

INGREDIENTS

  • Sol Beer (in bottles)
  • Serrano or Cayannetta Peppers

HOW THE MAGIC HAPPENS

Sol with Cayennetta Pepper slices

I love all things spicy and have tried several different beers with several different peppers until I have found, what I think, is a match made in heaven.

I have tried lagers, Lite beers, Craft beers, IPAs, Stouts– you name it. I tried different peppers: Jalapeño, Habanero, Hungarian wax, etc.

But when I brought together Sol and Serrano– Bingo!

Put the gloves on first.  I had made this mistake, once and only once, when after constructing this drink, late at night I removed my contacts and felt as if I was going to become blind.  The thing about capsaicin oil in peppers is that it stays on the skin for a good 24 hours.

These peppers have both flavor and heat. I think anything above the 50K SHU scale takes away from the flavor of the beer.

Slice peppers in thin strips, making sure to remove all seeds.  Add no more than 3-4 slices to your Sol beer.

Serve, enjoy,

SERVE WITH:

  • Chips
  • guacamole
  • Friends
