Down Low Cocktail

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This cocktail is made with a shot of whiskey topped off with beer. The "Down Low" in the title refers to the fact that the hard liquor in the mixed drink is concealed by the beer. It is a cheap but effective drink popular with college students.^{[citation needed]}

In a Highball or Old Fashioned glass mix

1 part Bourbon Whiskey.

7 parts American Beer (e.g., Budweiser, Coors, Michelob, Pabst Blue Ribbon).

[edit] Variants

• Often a shot of Tennessee Whiskey (e.g., Jack Daniels) is used instead, as it is commonly available in any bar.
• American micro-brewed beers (i.e., Sam Adams, Harpoon, Naragansett) are often used for their higher alcohol content.
