Sweet Fritter Dough: Place the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Dissolve the yeast in warm milk and place it in the well. Add the sugar, salt, and melted butter, mixing lightly. Gradually incorporate the flour, continuing to mix until the dough is smooth. Add the beer, mixing. Sprinkle the dough with the tablespoon of vegetable oil to prevent a crust from forming. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise at room temperature for 45 minutes. The egg whites will be beaten and included in the dough just before frying. Honey: Mix the water with the sugar in a pot and stir until dissolved. Simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Add the apple liqueur and lemon juice.
