The only way to drink beer ... a Michelada!

I discovered this delightful drink in Nuevo Vallarta. This recipe appears to be a good approximation of what we enjoyed:

MICHELADA

1/2 lime, preferably a Key lime
Coarse salt
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
1 dash Tabasco sauce
1 pinch black pepper
12 ounces beer (Tecate and Sol are good ones)

• Squeeze the juice from the lime and reserve. Salt the rim of a highball glass by rubbing it with the lime and dipping it in coarse salt. Fill with ice.
• Add lime juice, Worcestershire, soy sauce, Tabasco and pepper.
• Pour in beer, stir and serve.

Another tastier way to drink light mexican beer:

stir together a bit of simple syrup, lemon lime soda and some fresh lime juice. Much sweeter.
