Michelada Recipe and Happy New Year!

I have always been a big fan of Michelada, a beer based Mexican cocktail. 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 our perfect!

If you’re looking for a VERY SIMPLE and delicious drink to ring in 2013 (or just a random weekend drink later in the year), this recipe can’t be beat.

Thanks to all of my readers! It was a great year of food and fun on My Colombian Recipes. What recipes would you like to see on this blog in the New Year? I am looking forward to another great year in 2014.
