Summer Brew

"This is a wonderful thirst quenching drink on a hot summer day and is a definite crowd pleaser. Very easy to make and everyone will want the recipe. For a limier taste, you can use a beer that has lime already in it (i.e.. Bud Light Lime). You can make this recipe ahead of time, just pour over ice when ready to serve. Delicious!" — christinerimer

We make a version of Summer Brew, but it is 1 can lemonade, full can of vodka, and 3 beers....yummy in the summer around the pool!

I was a little skeptical at first but really wanted a refreshing drink on a 97 degree day so I gave it a try and WOW it was fabulous! I followed the directions exactly (used vodka) poured it over ice, garnished with lime and could not believe how great this drink was! Before I knew it the whole pitcher was gone! (I made it for 3 people) This one you must try this summer!

I made this as an alternative to Hurricanes for a Mardi Gras celebration. 5 gallons made, not much left was all the review I needed.

LOVE this drink, but it definitely has the hidden kick that some others mentioned! It's cold weather out but I made spicy food and this goes splendidly with it. I substituted lemon/lime crystal light (but made it concentrated) and it's perfect! Poured it over crushed ice, divine.

Made this tonight for friends. Everyone loved it and wanted the recipe. No reason to change a thing. Really refreshing. It is kind of like the hard lemonades out there but less sweet. Great for entertaining or something to sip at the pool.

We make this as a Strip and Go Naked also, but with whiskey, beer and lemonade concentrate, in a blender with lots of ice, sort of an "adult slushie"

Absolutely wonderful! I made this for Bunco night- without even tasting- and everyone loved it. It was the first drink to go, among wine and other cocktails. This would be very fun and refreshing for summer. I doubled the recipe and used 3 BudLight Lime & 3 Corona.
