Chili Pepper Beers Bring The Heat

Chipotle Lime Crema

Makes 1 cup

A riff on the traditional crema, this one has some lovely smoky flavor with a wee bit of heat.

Ingredients:

1 cup sour cream

¼ cup chipotle flavored beer such as The Mayan Chocolate Chipotle Stout

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

2 teaspoons minced chipotle pepper in adobo

Directions:

Stir or whisk all ingredients together in a small serving bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Stir again and serve drizzled or dolloped atop chili.
