Summer Brews are the best – refreshing, flavorful, citrus-y and light. The original Summer Brew is beer mixed with vodka lemonade. Delicious. However, I’m a huge fan of wheat beers (Boulevard, Blue Moon, etc.) topped with an orange… so, I created my own version of a summer brew with fresh squeezed orange juice, vodka and wheat beer. I garnished it with fresh blue berries and an orange slice to make it colorful and fun… it is, after all, a cocktail. Orange & Blueberry Summer Brew 4 cocktails 
3 oranges, 2 juiced, 1 sliced 1/2 cup of water 1 tablespoon of sugar 1/4 cup of vodka 4 wheat beers (ex. Boulevard, Blue Moon) Fresh Blue Berries Mix together the fresh orange juice, water, sugar and vodka just before the party – keep it cold in the refrigerator, then add the beer and garnishes when served.
Summer Brews are great for outdoor parties – more refreshing than wine on these hot summer evenings. Get the Marinated Steak Kebabs recipe, here.
