Maybe I could wait until the weather’s warmer before posting a quencher like a Michelada, but suddenly I feel like playing with beer. The one in this recipe is
Schlenkerla Oak Smoke, a great ingredient to cook with as well. A pint bottle will do two drinks—or one if you’re very thirsty.
Smoky Michelada- 8 oz Schlenkerla Oak Smoke beer, or to taste
- 3 oz tomato juice
- juice of 1 lime
- 2 dashes hot sauce
- 2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- salt, for rim
Rim chilled pint glass with salt. Shake remaining ingredients except beer with ice lightly 10 times. Pour into glass and add beer. Stir briefly. Lime shell garnish.
