How to Make Beer Mojito
- Roughly chop 1 cup of fresh peppermint leaves.
- In a mortar and pestle, combine the chopped peppermint leaves and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
- Muddle the peppermint and sugar until the leaves are crushed and the sugar is dissolved.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl or glass, pressing gently to extract all the flavor.
- **Variation I (Direct Beer):** Add 2 tablespoons of the peppermint-sugar mixture to a chilled glass. Slowly add the chilled beer, being careful to avoid excessive foaming.
- **Variation II (Water + Beer):** Add 2 tablespoons of the peppermint-sugar mixture to a chilled glass. Add a small amount of ice water to your preference, followed by the chilled beer, again adding slowly.
- Garnish with fresh peppermint sprigs and lime wedges.
- Serve immediately and enjoy! (Note: German beer is often served at 7°C)
