Summertime is perfect for fresh fruits and vegetables, and fresh ingredients make for fantastic cocktails! A favorite herb to use in summer is cilantro, because its distinct fresh taste is great in cold salads and cold drinks! Cilantro is extremely popular now in new culinary and beverage recipes. Jason Littrell from a cool local bar called Randolph at Broome, between Bowery and Elizabeth in Soho, created a fantastic cocktail using cilantro, tequila and beer! Cheers!
Cilantro and Beer
1 1/2oz ultra premium anejo tequila
1 oz Fresh Lime Juice
¾ oz Simple Syrup
Negro Modelo Beer
Cilantro

Muddle cilantro into your mixing glass. Pour in the tequila, lime juice and simple syrup. Give a good shake and strain into a Collins glass. Top with Negro Modelo Beer. Garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs.
