Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 taco seasoning mix Old El Paso brand; tablespoon quantity not specified
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 6 ounces tomato juice
  • 1/3 cup lime juice about 2 limes, freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 2 cups ice
  • 2 12 ounce lager beer Mexican; bottles
  • 2 lime wheels

Instructions

  1. Stir the taco seasoning mix and salt together in a shallow bowl until combined.
  2. Run a cut lime around the rim of two large (20-ounce or larger) serving glasses.
  3. One at a time, invert the glasses into the seasoned salt and wiggle them around until the rims are well coated.
  4. In a medium bowl, stir together the tomato juice, lime juice, hot sauce, and soy sauce. Divide the mixture between the two prepared glasses. You can use this 26-ounce beer mugs from Amazon.
  5. Top each with 1 cup of ice.
  6. Remove the caps from the beer bottles. In one swift motion, invert one of the bottles into a prepared glass, pushing it down towards the bottom. Repeat with the second bottle and glass. Garnish with lime wheels and serve.

Notes

  • If using a lemon-squeezer, flip the limes upside down in the bowl of the press to extract the most liquid. You may substitute Worcestershire or fish sauce for the soy sauce; start with 1 teaspoon, taste, and add more until the mix is obviously a little salty.
  • Storage Info:
  • Micheladas are best enjoyed fresh and are not typically suited for long-term storage. If you find yourself with leftovers, you can store the tomato juice mixture (without beer) in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
