Red Beer (Red Eye)

Glass Guide- Beer Mug

Red Beer (or Red Eye) is a no brainer if you think about it: beer and tomato juice. I often hear people refer to this as a Bloody Mary; a clear misconception, but a common one. Any beer can be used in this drink, although I would advice using a lighter one that is inexpensive (save the good beer for drinking straight). You can also dress up the flavor in the same way you would a Bloody Mary, by using hot sauce, pepper, celery salt, etc.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz tomato juice
  • 14 oz beer
  • salt to taste

Preparation:

  1. Pour the tomato juice into a beer mug.
  2. Fill with beer.
  3. Add salt to taste.
