Author Notes: One rainy day the cabinets were nearly bare but with a bit of this and that this soup was created and perfect paired with a deli sandwhich or salad. - JennT1981

Serves 2

1 can French Onion soup
1/4 cup beef broth
3/4 cups water
1/4 cup beer
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 dash pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 slices sour dough
2 slices Swiss cheese
2 slices gruyere

Preheat oven to broil, or 500 degrees F.
In a medium sauce pan combine, soup, broth, water, beer, vinegar, pepper and brown sugar.
Bring to boil, reduce heat to low and simmer about 5 minutes for flavors to meld.
Evenly pour soup into two 5 ounce oven proof ramekins.
Top each ramekin with a slice of sour dough, Swiss and gruyere.
Place on a baking sheet and broil until cheese is golden and bubbling, about 3 to 5 minutes.
