Michelada

Michelada is an intriguing cocktail made with light Mexican beer. (I used Corona.) 

There were so many different recipes out there, from just basic beer with a splash of chilli and lime and no tomato juice to this full-on cross between a bloody Mary and a spicy burrito! 

This version really hits the spots! 

Ingredients
makes 2

660ml Mexican light beer, ice cold

120ml tomato juice

60ml lime juice

30ml Tabasco sauce

15ml vegetarian Worcestershire Sauce

1 tsp Tajin (cayene pepper/salt mix)

Method

You can make your own tajin by simply mixing cayenne pepper and salt (1:2 ratio)

Prepare your glass by salting the rim with the tajin, (by running a juiced lime along the edge and then dipping into the cayenne pepper/salt mix.)

In a jug mix the tomato juice, lime juice, Tabasco sauce and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce together with a teaspoon of the tajin (cayenne pepper/salt mix)

Pour the spiced tomato juice into the prepared glass, over ice if you prefer.

Then pour over the beer.
