"DNA" Mexican Beer Cocktail aka "Da Moopbrown"

This Mexican Beer Cocktail aka Da Moopbrown is damn good! Hey if Arnold Palmer can have his own drink, why can't I? Make it and thank me later. Fair warning if you don't like beer, this isn't for you, otherwise drink up, responsibly that is.

Admittedly, I was slow to the idea of a beer cocktail. I love beer, but am somewhat of a purist. Likewise, I am not much of a cocktail guy as I like my liquor straight-up neat for the most part. However, I can be somewhat of a mad scientist when it comes to food and drinks.

My beer cocktail is Frankensteined iteration of my beer and hot chocolate tendencies. It's chocolate, plus a spicy heat to complement both the sweetness and richness of the beer provided by it's combination of caramel and black malts.

BEER COCKTAIL INGREDIENTS

• Dark Mexican Beer
• Coffee Liqueur
• Cocoa Powder
• Chili Powder
• Lime
• Salt

HOW TO MIX BEER COCKTAILS

Mix salt, chili powder, and cocoa powder into a small, shallow dish in an even layer.

Rub the rim of a pint glass with the cut side of a lime quarter then dip glass into the dish to create a "salted" rim.

Set the glass right side up and fill with a shot of the coffee liqueur. Top with the beer and stir gently. Garnish with dried chili strips.

BEER COCKTAIL CONSIDERATION

Go with a darker Mexican beer like Negra Modelo or Bohemian

There are lots of good coffee liqueurs on the market these days. Patron XO Cafe is pretty good, as is Austin based Caffe del Fuego, but my favorite is probably Nirvana.
