This past weekend might have been the last seriously warm Saturday of the year. To celebrate, I mixed myself a fruity refreshment.
The Buzzy Navel, as it's called, is closely related to a perennial favorite, the Fuzzy Navel. The primary distinction? It includes a surprise element of beer, which alters the taste of the cocktail, mellowing out the hot flavors of hard liquor and adding a lingering, malty finish.
When I mixed my Buzzy Navel, I tweaked the recipe to my own liking, adding an extra 1/3 ounce of beer and omitting the ice. You can do the same when you read more.

2Interesting! My friends used to mix beer and orange soda (for beer pong... oh college) so I guess this is just a classed-up version of that!
3ahhh adding the beer makes it buzzy. you know, fuzzy navels were the FIRST drinks that i've ever had when going to bars - so i have a soft spot in my heart for them.
