MICHELADAS!!!
The michelada is a popular beer cocktail made famous by Mexico. 
The michelada was created during the Mexican revolution of 1910, when the Mexican army general, Don Augusto Michel, brought his troops to a local cantina and mixed the drink to lift their spirits. The name derives from a combination of Michel’s name and the Spanish word “chelada”, which translates to “cold one.” Since then, the drink has become popularized in a number of other countries, and is the perfect combination of refreshing and hot.

To make this delicious drink, there are only a few main ingredients that you will need.
- 12oz beer
- 1 lime
- 2 tbsp Clamato
- Hot sauce
- Worcestershire sauce
- Salt
First, find a tasty Mexican lager. Corona and Tacate are great, easy-to-find options. If you are more into beer with vibrant hops, you may enjoy making your michelada with a Mexican pilsner instead, such Modelo Especial or Pacifico.
Prepare your glass like you would a margarita glass, by rimming it with a wedge of lime and then dipping it in coarse salt to achieve a salted rim. For an even spicier drink, mix chili powder with the salt before rimming the glass.
Then, pour the beer into a separate glass for mixing. Add lime juice, hot sauce (preferably a Mexican hot sauce, such as Cholula), and a few drops of Worcestershire sauce and stir.
While you can use regular tomato juice, the authentic way to make a michelada is with Clamato, a mixture made from tomato juice, clam broth, and spices. If you can’t find Clamato at your local grocery store, then regular tomato sauce will do. You only need about two tablespoons of Clamato, and this will turn your drink a nice red color. Add ice and use a shaker to blend the drink well.
Serve with a lime wedge on the rim. Then you are ready to enjoy!

Champurrado
Champurrado is a chocolate-based atole, a warm and thick Mexican drink, prepared with either masa de maíz (lime-treated-corn dough), masa harina (a dried version of this dough), or corn flour (simply very finely ground dried corn, especially local varieties grown foratole); panela; water or milk; and occasionally containing cinnamon, anise seed and or vanilla. Ground nuts, orange zest, and egg can also be employed to thicken and enrich the drink. Atole drinks are whipped up using a wooden whisk called a molinillo (or, a blender). The whisk is rolled between the palms of the hands, then moved back and forth in the mixture until it is aerated and frothy.
Champurrado is traditionally served with churros in the morning as a simple breakfast or as a late afternoon snack. Champurrado is also very popular during Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead in Spanish) and at Las Posadas (the Christmas Season) where it is served alongside tamales. An instant mix for champurrado is available in Mexican grocery stores. Champurrado may also be made with alcohol.
Churros Mexicanos
A churro is a fried-dough pastry—predominantly choux—based snack. Churros are popular in Spain, France, the Philippines,Portugal, Ibero-America and the Southwestern United States. In Spain, churros can either be thin (and sometimes knotted) or long and thick. They are normally eaten for breakfast dipped in champurrado, hot chocolate or café con leche.
