Instructions

Things You'll Need

• Empty Corona or Coronita beer bottles
• Corona salt and pepper caps
• Salt and pepper
• Funnel

1. Run the empty beer bottles in the dishwasher to sterilize. Let the bottles dry thoroughly overnight.

2. Use a small funnel to fill the bottles with salt and pepper at least 3/4 full. Add several grains of rice to the salt to absorb any excess moisture.

3. Cap the bottles securely. The Corona caps made specifically for the bottle salt and pepper shakers already have holes for sprinkling the seasoning inside.

Tips & Warnings

• If you like, make a Corona-bottle shaker to hold other dry seasonings you commonly use.
