Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 bottle (12 oz) Mexican beer (e.g., Modelo, Corona, or Pacifico)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (e.g., Tabasco or Valentina)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 4 tablespoons Clamato or tomato juice
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder or Tajín
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 6 pieces Ice cubes
- 1 piece Lime wedge
Instructions
Start by preparing the rim of a tall glass. Run the lime wedge around the rim of the glass to moisten it.
Mix salt and chili powder (or Tajín) on a small plate. Dip the moistened rim of the glass into the mixture to coat the edge evenly. Set aside.
Fill the glass halfway with ice cubes to keep the beverage cold and refreshing.
Add 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice, 1 teaspoon of hot sauce, 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, and 4 tablespoons of Clamato or tomato juice to the glass.
Gently pour the beer into the glass, allowing the flavors to mix naturally. Be careful to avoid spilling over the rim.
Stir lightly with a spoon or drinking straw to combine the ingredients without losing too much carbonation.
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim for a decorative touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your zesty Michelada Mexico City Style.
