Case in point? The Discovery Channel recently featured a beer cocktail recipe and video on its website designed and executed by none other than yours truly (with the help of amazing partners, naturally).

I recently partnered with two of my talented and forward thinking friends, Jerry James Stone and Chris Eldridge, to launch a beer mixology pilot project (you can read more about the team below). Our ultimate goal is to develop one of the most, if not the most viral beverage-themed video series on the Internet (move aside Wine Library TV!).

The first recipe and video in the series, “Roasted Apricot Margarita (Made with Beer)“, was posted on the Discovery Channel’s website this week. The unique recipe features a twist on the classic margarita with apricot preserves and American IPA (video features: Bison’s Organic IPA).

Instead of posting the recipe and the video on my blog, I’m going to force you to visit the Discovery Channel post so that you can help support our project by liking it on Facebook and retweeting the link on Twitter. Just think of the possibilities if this project takes off! Thanks, in advance, for all your support.

And here is a little teaster for the road…
