Michelada is a simple cocktail perfect to serve on your next party or get together.
What is Michelada?
It's a Mexican spicy and savory cocktail made with beer, juice, spices and more ingredients. There are many variations of this refreshing drink
While living in Colombia, I often went to a Mexican restaurant in Medellín where I always ordered this wonderful drink. Last week, I was thinking about that restaurant and began craving Micheladas. So, I made my own Michelada cocktail and it turned out perfect!
If you’re looking for a VERY SIMPLE and delicious drink , this recipe can’t be beat.
It's perfect for Mexican theme dinner with these tilapia fish tacos, chicken quesadillas and guacamole with chips.

This sounded so much like the cerveza preparada that I had in Guatemala that I tried it immediately. There was no tomato juice in that, but the other ingredients were much the same. It feels a little silly to be drinking a cold beer cocktail with snow on the ground, but I am enjoying it very much. Thanks for the recipe!

I had Michaladas at a Mexican Restaurant in Downtown Denver a few years ago and couldn't get home fast enough to Google a recipe and add it to my database. They're delicious. Happy New Year.
