My Cold Beer
 PVNN
Michelada is roughly translated as "my cold beer." This spicy cocktail concoction is a beer with lime and some peppery seasoning. It's kind of like a Tomato Beer without the tomato. Often times in Puerto Vallarta when you ask for a michelada they'll just bring a glass with lime juice in it and salt on the rim. In Mexico's interior this Bloody Mary type drink is served preparada. This is rumored to be a hangover cure, but I like them so much drinking micheladas usually start me on the next hangover.
Ingredients
1/2 lime
Coarse salt
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
1 dash soy sauce
1 dash Tabasco sauce
1 pinch black pepper
1 dash salsa Maggi seasoning, optional
12 ounces beer, preferably a dark Mexican beer like Negra Modelo.
A 16oz. or larger glass
Directions
Squeeze the juice from the lime and reserve. Salt the rim of a glass by rubbing it with the lime and dipping it in coarse salt. Fill with ice.
Add lime juice, Worcestershire, soy sauce, Tabasco, pepper and Maggi, if desired.
Pour in beer, stir and serve, adding more beer as you sip.
Yield: 1 cocktail |
