Raspberry Beer Cocktail

I know it's been a bit since my last post, but I've been having so much fun playing with my new grill that I haven't had time to do much else.

This is the time of year that it's too hot to do much cooking indoors and it's so glorious outside that all you want to do is sit outside - near a grill - with a nice cold drink while enjoying the hot weather.

I made this cocktail over the weekend for our Independence Day celebration and it was a total hit. (Sorry, no photo - we drank it so fast there wasn't time to take a picture.)

You will need:
4 beers of your choice
(I used a light-colored beer, which seemed to work well)
1/2 cup of vodka
(I used raspberry vodka but you could use regular)
One 12 oz container of frozen  raspberry or pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 cup of raspberries 
(either frozen or fresh are fine)

Mix all of the ingredients together in a large punch bowl and serve chilled or in frosted glasses. 

It makes 6 servings and goes fast!
