Why You'll Want This Again

This salsa has a unique twist with the addition of alcohol, which brings out deeper flavors and adds a subtle richness. It’s smoky, tangy, and just a little bit bold, making it a perfect match for chips, tacos, or grilled meats. Plus, roasting the ingredients enhances their natural sweetness and complexity.

Tips For Perfect Results

- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor.
- Be careful not to over-roast the peppers; they should be soft but not burnt.
- Let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes after mixing to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 1

Warm your oven’s broiler and lining a baking sheet with foil. Cut the green and red bell peppers, jalapenos, and serrano peppers in half lengthwise, then remove and toss the stems and seeds. Arrange the peppers on the baking sheet and brush them lightly with olive oil. Pop them under the broiler for about 3 to 5 minutes, until their skins get nicely blackened and blistered.

Step 2

Once they’re out of the oven, transfer the peppers to a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let them steam for around 10 minutes—that will make peeling the skins super easy. When the skins are loosened, peel them off and discard.

Step 3

Toss the peeled peppers into a blender along with the chopped onion, tomato, garlic, cilantro, canned diced tomatoes with their juice, lime juice, salt, pepper, and a splash of beer. Blend everything until it reaches the texture you like.

Step 4

Pour the salsa into a bowl and chill it in the fridge for about half an hour to let the flavors come together before serving.

Serving Variations

Serve this salsa chilled or at room temperature alongside warm tortilla chips. It also pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken, fish tacos, or even as a topping for scrambled eggs. For a fun twist, spoon some over avocado toast or mix into a fresh salad.

How To Refrigerate This Dish

Store the salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Stir well before serving, as the ingredients may settle. For longer storage, you can freeze the salsa in small portions, but the texture might change slightly after thawing.
