Mexican beer with lime, is the only kind of beer to drink! Or to consume in popsicle format... apparently this is possible!

How to Make Beer Popsicles
What You Need
6 Limes
6 teaspoons of Light Agave Nectar
6 cans of beer (we used Tecate)
6 wooden skewers, sticks or plastic utensils
1 bowl for each can of beer
6 plastic party cups (optional)
Instructions
1. Open Cans: Remove roughly 1/4 of the can so it doesn't expand into a beer volcano in your freezer (just trust us on this one)... or, pour the entire contents of the can into a plastic party cup.
2. Add In Agave & Lime: Stir the contents of the cup or can until mixed (15 econds).
3. Add Sticks: You can use almost anything in the kitchen as a stick if you don't want to purchase popsicle sticks. Just be aware that anything wooden inserted into the mix should be moistened first. Either a quick dip in the beer or with water, this is a step that can't be skipped. If you do, your mixture will bubble and foam for roughly 20 minutes. Hold in place with a paper plate with a hole in it over each cup, or put through the can pop-tab hole.
4.Time To Freeze: The length of time each popsicle will take to freeze is determined by two things. The first being your freezer's temperature and the other is how well your mix was, well... mixed, so make sure all the agave and lime is combined! We placed each can or cup in a small bowl to catch any escaping juices and although this is an optional step, we highly suggest it for your first few attempts. Allow to freeze solid for 3-4 hours or overnight.
5. Removal: If you used the party cup method, removing the pop from the can is as simple as giving it a twist and it should pop right out. If you used the can, use a serrated knife to cut off the bottom and slide the pop out of the can.
6. Enjoy! You can eat them just as they are or even sprinkle them with a little salt first. Make sure to share with the neighbors for an extra dose of friendliness.
