Perfect for hot days or as a unique party drink, a Michelada is easy to make and customize. Here’s a simple recipe to get you started.
Ingredients:
- 1 bottle of Mexican beer (such as Corona, Modelo, or Pacifico)

- Garnish and serve: Optionally, garnish your Michelada with a lime wedge or a cucumber slice. Enjoy your refreshing drink!
