Chelada (Beer Cocktail)
A chelada is delicious fresh and tangy Mexican beer cocktail made of beer and lime juice, served in an ice-cold glass with a salt rim. A refreshing drink on a hot day.
Equipment
- Glass that has been cooled in the freezer
Ingredients
- 1 can/bottle of beer Mexican beer like Modelo or Sol, or just local pilsner or lighter beer
- juice of 2 limes
- salt
Instructions
- Cut limes in half. Rub half of the lime around the edge of the glass to make the salt for the salt rim stick
- Put salt on a little plate and make a salt rim by pressing the glass in the salt
- Squeeze the limes and pour juice in the glass. Add beer of your choice

Notes
In some places ice is added to the drink. Unless you are a very fast drinker, that will make your chelada really watery. Best is to use a cold beer and a cold glass so you can still enjoy a very cold drink.
