A Queen Marybeer cocktail is a mixture of grenadine and beer,[1][2] which is commonly garnished with maraschino cherries.[3] It is typically served in beer glassware, leaving room for a generous amount of beer head which can take on a pink or cherry-like tone.[4] This drink can be quite sweet and is best enjoyed chilled.[5]
A Queen Mary cocktail is made by pouring grenadine into a beer glass, to taste, followed by beer,[7] leaving room at the top for a thick layer of pink-hued beer foam.[4][12] Maraschino cherries are often added as a garnish,[3][13] while drizzling syrup from the cherries onto the beer foam for additional sweetness and colour, as desired.[14] While any beer can be used to make the drink, lighter beer styles are generally preferred, such as a lager, pilsner or pale ale.[11]
