SANDRA'S ALASKA CORONARITAS (aka beer margaritas)

A very pleasing and refreshing beverage 
anytime of the year ~
I'm not a huge fan of the
flavor of tequila, although I'm
unable to detect its flavor
in these delectable Coronaritas...

Yields: (6 drinks)
Prep: 10 Mins.

INGREDIENTS:

***Coronaritas:
1 (12. oz. bottle) of Corona beer
12 ozs. of tequila
--(use a quality brand)
1 (12 oz. can) of frozen limeade concentrate, unthawed
12 (12 oz. can) of sprite
1 lime, cut in half
--(reserve other ½ for rimming glass)
Ice cubes, enough for 6 glasses

***Rimming the glass / garnish:
1 lime, cut into 8 slices, then cut a slit half way through each slice (for garnish)
and kosher salt (to rim glass)

METHOD:

Prepare six stemmed margarita glasses by running a half of a lime around the rim of each. Pour some kosher salt onto a flat saucer, and gently tap the moistened rim of the glass in to coat. Fill each glass will ice cubes, and then set aside.

***[For non-blended coronaritas]:
Pour the corona, tequila, limeade concentrate, sprite into a large pitcher. Squeeze half a lime into the pitcher mixture as well, and stir to combine. Pour the coronarita mixture equally among the 6 prepared glasses, and garnish them with a slice of lime.

***[For blended coronaritas (my preference ;-)]
Pour the corona, tequila, limeade concentrate, sprite into a blender. Squeeze half a lime into the pitcher mixture, as well as 3 cups of ice cubes, and puree to combine. Pour the coronarita mixture equally among 6 prepared glasses, and garnish with a slice of lime.
