Making this for Pancakes and Booze shows this fall in Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. So if I was already doing a piece featuring Prickly Pear ice cream, it seems obvious that this show would need one about Prickly Pear beer as well.

I’m from the mid-west and when I first heard people ate cactuses I was all, “shut up!” Then the idea of them producing sweet tasty fruits was a shock as well. Now putting them in beer? Weird. Taking the better National Beer of Texas and mixing it with a fruity flavor is weird. It is a shock every time I taste it, but you know what? It works. So shut the hell up.

Now where can I find prickly pear colored candles!?
