BEER COCKTAIL WITH LIME & TAJíN
A refreshing way to enjoy a beer, a chelada (also called michelada) is a popular drink in Mexico. There are many variations but it often features a lager with a hefty dose of lime juice served in a glass with a salted rim. To spice things up a bit, we dip the rim of the glass in Tajín (a chile-lime seasoning) to give each sip a tangy bite, and add a little ice to the glass to keep things nice and cold.

CLASSIC MICHELADA
Steps:
- Place about 1/4 cup salt on a small plate. Rub the rim of a Collins or pint glass (or a 16-ounce Solo cup-no need to get fancy) with one of the lime wedges to moisten it, then dip the rim in the salt to coat.
- Combine the tomato juice, lime juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, Tajín, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl and mix.
- Fill the prepared glass about three-quarters full with ice cubes and add the tomato juice mixture. Top with beer and garnish with the remaining lime wedge.
Tips:
- Use fresh limes for the best flavor. Limes that are too ripe will be bitter, while limes that are not ripe enough will be sour.
- If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice. However, fresh limes will give your cocktail a much better flavor.
- Use a good quality beer. A light beer will work best in this cocktail, but you can use any type of beer that you like.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of tequila. A silver tequila will give your cocktail a clean, crisp flavor, while a reposado tequila will add a bit of smokiness.
- Serve your cocktail immediately. This cocktail is best when it is served fresh.
Conclusion:
The lime beer cocktail is a refreshing and delicious cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you are looking for a new cocktail to try, give the lime beer cocktail a try.
