Michelada 👎
Recipe
330ml Mexican lager
15 ml lime juice
2 drops Tabasco sauce
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
Ground black pepper
Salt
Cayenne pepper
Lime wedges
Wet the rim of a pint glass and run it through salt and Cayenne pepper. Then add everything but the beer, and serve to an unsuspecting customer. The customer then adds the beer, making a horrible-looking swirly chunky mess.
This was pretty horrible. I like a Bloody Mary or a margarita, so I was willing to try a drink with salt; and I like trying new things, and I was in a Mexican restaurant. But this was seriously unpleasant, and I didn't finish it. I think they actually put salt in the drink, which meant that I wasn't just getting a hint of salt from the rim (very nice in a margarita), but actually a salty beer. Also they didn't include any ice, despite what the menu said, and warm lager is bad enough on its own.
Maybe it'd be worth another try with a bit more attention to detail. As it is, this is probably only to be drunk as some kind of dare.
