Hello dear readers.
As you know, I live in St Louis. One of the things about living here is that occasionally when I leave my house the air smells of yeast (I think it’s yeast) due to the proximity to the Budweiser Factory. Budweiser is a local brewery here that seems to do pretty good business. (We have other local breweries too, many many more, but if a measure of the taste of beer is equal to the brewery’s success, then obviously Budweiser is the best!
Anyway, while I was at the store the other day stocking up on healthy stuff like fruits and vegetables (true story!) I noticed a giant display of Bud Light Lime-A-Rita. I’m a huge fan of margaritas, so I decided it was time for me to try this particular beverage. I had been tempted to try it ever since another blogger had reviewed it recently.
The people in the grocery store parking lot looked at me funny when I took a long series of photos to capture the excitement, but hey! I don’t care!
Clarification: I had very low expectations for this drink, but I thought it would be fun to try. I did not actually think it would taste like a delicious margarita.
Serious pose. Please note I am wearing a very patriotic shirt. I take holidays seriously.
Verdict: surprisingly good! I hear there’s a strawberry flavor: I might have to try that next.
Have you tried the ‘Rita?
I’m not a fan of the Lime-a-Rita, but I do like the strawberry one.
Holiday-appropriate shirts are so important…I fail as a teacher by having so few. The best I usually manage is getting the color right. So I wore blue yesterday.
Mmmmm, yum I need to try. You are the perfect spokesperson.
I have an entire case of the strawberry (minus one can) clearly I liked it… But for real the strawberry is fine but nothing like a real margarita. If I’m ever not too lazy I want to try it blended with ice.
