Favorite michelada recipes

I suck at doing my own but my favorite spot in Houston for micheladas is at San Marcos refresqueria and Taqueria on Broadway. I usually do Modelo Especial on mine.

 

Captain Toms
Mambos
El Tiempo

Have the best. If you want to make your own then Louisiana Hot Sauce (yellow top bottle at HEB) 3 tablespoons, half a lime, half tsp salt with lime and salted rim. Add some Clamato if you want more of a Bloody Mary mix. Mambos will also sell you their bottle.

Cuchara and Fisheria have some if you're more into a cutesy variety, not my style.

I like Micheladas.

We need to hang out. I can take you to some special places. theres a Beverage King in South Houston that will blow your mind.

 

Zing Zang
horseradish
Lea & Perrins
celery salt
ground pepper
pickled pepper/okra
lime
celery stick
vodka

 

The mambos bottles you can buy are hands down the best for at home micheladas. I go to the El Tiempo market off Washington to buy them. But restaurants that have good ones are:

Connies
Mambos
Captain Tom's - you can add shrimp or oysters to them
Molinas - believe it or not

As far as what beers to mix with: I prefer Modelo but really you cant go wrong with any light beer.

 

Go to HEB and pick up a bottle of Triple -S Brownsvilles Finest mix. Its the best mix I've found. Only at heb and online

You'll thank me.

 

Forgot about LA Crawfish. Its byob and they have their mix already made in little containers. Their stuff is serious fire. Really unique and tasty.

Also adding: Zing Zang is horrible

 

Damn....now I have the urge to have a few miches. I have two bottles of triple s at home!!!

 

Same here. This thread left me no choice but to run home for my lunch break and mix one up

 

Bros everyone do yourself a favor and go drink a real chelada at the place I posted above. Mambos, seriously? lol

For those in Pasadena try Fast track express.

Reeko I'll definitely go try the place you mentioned.

 

To each their own I guess. I can't imagine drinking that hot sauce and ketchup stuff mambos and every other seafood place sells. Go to Pastry war.

 

Pastry War has a decent michelada, they just don't give you enough. Usually they make it with the small dos x bottles. I usually ask for a modelo anyways but they don't up the quantity of their mix. Pastry Wars is the first miche I fell in love with but I've tasted so many better ones since then.

 

You really have to get the mix right with that brand. Try the triple s. You won't be sorry

 

Give The Boot a shot in the Heights. Theirs is quite good.
