Summer Drink Recipe: Micheladas

After a long day at work, or even a hot afternoon full of work in the garden, Micheladas always hit the spot when I want something a little more refreshing than a plain old beer. This is a recipe I shared last year with the 30k Millionaire Crew and it was a hit!

Michelada's date back to around 1940 and are typically a version of Bloody Marys but with Mexican beer instead of vodka. Traditionally, they have ingredients such as clamato, salsa, and Maggi (a Nestle's brand variety of tomato soup). If it has any type of hot sauce included, it is usually referred to as a "Michelada Cubana".

As a self-pronounced amateur foodie I am normally jazzed when food is at it's weirdest state, however I prefer the boring version of Michelada referred to as "Michelada Regular". It is simple, clean, refreshing and totally undemanding when it comes to dinero. Sometimes you really can't beat that. Especially when you are pairing it with the kickin' flavors associated with tasty Mexican cuisine. Follow the recipe below and fall in love with a new Mexican favorite.

The super simple plan:

Throw in one bottle Mexcian Beer (use something lighter like Corona or my personal favorite, Pacifico) and the juice of two lemons. Mix and pour over ice. Rim the glass with Salt. ¡Ole!
