Best recipe for a "bloody beer" or "clamato and beer" chelada type drink?
I want to make some bloody beer or clamato and beer type drinks on 4th of July. Can someone post how to make a good one.
Please be more specific than "clamato juice and beer" -- like how much of each? What other ingredients make it good? Worcesteshire? Hot sauce? Tobasco? Etc.
And is it generally made over ice? Or is it just cold based on the temperature of the beer?
Any links would be appreciated.
Answers: This one is served in two popular bars. Did I mention we are 5 mile from the border?
Rim glass with chili powder and salt (another option is Old Bay; I do that at home)
Squeeze juice of one lime
3 dashes of Worcestershire
Tabasco or Tapatio to your taste
pepper
fill glass 3/4 way with beer and top with Clamato
If you have to much Clamato, the drink gets really old really fast (have you had the Bud Light Cheladas?)
The key is enough Clamato to color the beer I generally do half beer, half Spicy V-8 with a twist of lemon. No ice. I generally use about 2/3 beer to 1/3 V8. I personally like a dash or two of Tabasco. Call it a Redeye. Things You'll Need
