Patty’s Dayplans now!
Because we started with light beer, we only needed a few drops per glass.
We didn’t add much dye, so this batch tasted like a regular beer.

Rock Candy
This version of green beer was definitely our favorite.
Rock candy is dyed sugar, so it didn’t change the flavor of our beer at all.
We added matcha green tea powder to the beer.

There was a definite health food taste, but we didn’t spit it out.
This one was fun to try, but we won’t be making it again anytime soon.
Sour Apple Skittles
We were surprised by how well this green beer recipe worked.

We added about 15 green Skittles to the bottom of our glass and started pouring.
The beer turned green immediately!
We added about a teaspoon ofwheatgrass powderto the bottom of the glass and then poured in the beer.

And once we scooped out enough foam to try the drink, it tasted bitter and chalky.
We won’t be making this green beer again.
