The michelada is a drink that sounds so curious I had to try it. Advertised as beer, spicy tomato juice, pepper and lime over ice, I was intrigued because I love bloody marys and this sounded similar but perhaps without the alcoholic kick. I was right. It's a much milder version of a bloody mary, with carbonation from the beer (in this case Mexican Pacifico Clara). It had a good finish from the spice and pepper and the lime added just the right amount of acidity. It was really easy to finish this drink, so it might be more dangerous than it looks...
