Notes

serving top tips

Serve each small 7 oz Coronita beer with a clip in beautiful blue-rimmed margarita glasses made in Mexico and or a pitcher.

"Coronita" tips

If you want the 7 oz Coronita "little beers" icy cold, pop them in the freezer for 20 minutes right before serving.

glassware tips

Some margarita glasses have a dip in them that holds the little Coronitas. I found my glasses and pitcher at Home Goods, they were quite inexpensive. Large Corona beers would tip over the glass, try to use the little 7 oz Coronitas for this cocktail, or use the Coronita clips made for this drink!
Corona sells clips online to hold beers in glasses just for this purpose, my glasses worked fine but test before your party. The beer can make the glass tippy so use some care!
