Red BloodedNow that the holiday season is impossible to ignore, it’s the perfect time for the red-eye, a bold new hair-of-the-dog hangover remedy.

WHAT
Beer is-well, if you don’t know what beer is, check the fridge. It’s a fermented and filtered, but not
distilled, brew of hops, barley, and water. It’s best consumed by itself and cold. (I don’t care what the English say. Beer is better when it’s cold.) In some cases, it makes an excellent mixer.

WHY
The Bloody Mary gets all the ink as a morning-after remedy, but the redeye is an excellent hangover cure. I think Mexican beers, particularly Negro Modelo or Bohemia, make the best red-eyes. Beck’s, a German lager, gets the job done, too. Tip: Use the straight tomato juice, not the spicy stuff.

HOW
Ingredients (makes one morningafter refresher)
8 ounces beer
1 ounce vodka
2 ounces tomato juice

Pour beer, vodka, and tomato juice into a pint glass. Stir, garnish with lime wedge, and serve.

MIX IT UP
English red-eye: Use gin instead of vodka.
Mexican red-eye: Use tequila instead of vodka.
