Tajin® michelada

I’m lucky enough to live in an area with a large Hispanic population and what seems like a Mexican restaurant or taqueria on every corner. They each have their own michelada recipe, and this is my version of my favorite. Maggi®Jugo seasoning can be found in the international aisle of your grocery store or Hispanic markets and provides an umami flavor. You may substitute soy sauce if necessary. Add more hot sauce if you prefer!

  • 1 teaspoon chili-lime seasoning (such as Tajin®)

  • ½ lime, cut into 2 wedges

  • ice as needed

  • ¾ teaspoon soy-based liquid seasoning (such as Maggi® Jugo)

  • ¾ teaspoon Mexican-style hot sauce (such as Valentina®)

  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle light Mexican beer (such as Modelo®)

Directions

  1. Pour Tajin® onto a small plate. Run 1 lime wedge around the edge of a pint glass, then invert glass onto the plate to create a salt rim.

  2. Fill glass about halfway with ice. Squeeze the same lime wedge into the glass. Add Maggi® Jugo, hot sauce, and any remaining Tajin® from the plate and stir with a spoon. Pour in tomato and clam juice cocktail and top with beer. Garnish with remaining lime wedge and serve immediately.
