Michelada Instructions
The Michelada is a classic Mexican cocktail that is perfect for those who enjoy a savory and spicy beverage. This refreshing drink is made with beer, lime juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and various spices. It is typically served in a salt-rimmed glass and garnished with a lime wedge and a stalk of celery.
To make a Michelada, start by rimming the glass with salt. This can be done by dipping the rim of the glass in lime juice and then into a plate of salt. Fill the glass halfway with ice cubes. Squeeze the juice of one lime into the glass and add a few dashes of hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Sprinkle in some chili powder, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir everything together to combine the flavors.
Once the seasonings are mixed, pour your favorite Mexican beer into the glass. Lighter beers, such as a lager or pilsner, are typically used for Micheladas. Slowly pour the beer into the glass to avoid excessive foaming. Stir gently to combine all of the ingredients. Taste and adjust the seasonings according to your preference.
Finally, garnish your Michelada with a lime wedge and a stalk of celery. The lime wedge can be squeezed into the drink for extra citrus flavor and the celery can be used as a garnish or as a utensil to stir the cocktail. Serve immediately and enjoy this zesty and refreshing drink!
In conclusion, the Michelada is a popular cocktail that combines the flavors of beer, lime juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and spices. It is a savory and spicy drink that is perfect for those who enjoy a little kick in their beverages. Whether you're enjoying a sunny day by the pool or want to spice up your happy hour, the Michelada is a must-try cocktail.
