La Platicona Habla: Tastes, Passions and Pursuits

For food lovers, hungry people, and cooking officionados or novices. This blog is for people who are real cooks, wannabe cooks, or no cooks at all. Almost all of these recipes are vegetarian, some use seafood. Recipes are creations of my own, adaptations from cookbooks, or from other internet sources with links.

Mecheladas!

August 15, 2010

I know the NY Times recently reviewed mecheladas in their dining and food section, but I think their recipe is simply too complicated.
A mechelada is a Mexican savory beer cocktail, and it comes in many varieties. At its heart it is a bloody mary made with a beer, sans the vodka.
For my version, I add 1/4 of the glass full of Clamato Cocktail Tomato juice, 2 juiced key limes, 2 ice cubes, and one Dos XX Lager. For fun, I threw in an olive. The result? A super refreshing, and not too tipsy making summer cocktail. Stir, drink. Repeat!
