Instructions

    • 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.

    This would probably work for other beer bottles as well. Maybe even for old coke bottles. Great idea. 5*
