Emerging Thing of the Week: Micheladas

Claire & I? We are *obsessed* with micheladas. As in, if they’re on a menu, they’re going to be in our bellies. If you aren’t acquainted with the drink, it’s a beer cocktail with lots of salty/umami flavors (soy sauce! worcestershire! etc.!), boatloads of tang (lime!), and plenty of kick—a less alcoholic, happy-hour-ready relative of the bloody mary, if you will. And though, like I said, we’ll order them anywhere, our favorite comes from the (really well-done) food blog Spoon Fork Bacon. I encourage inviting some pals over, firing up the grill, quadrupling the recipe (skipping the fussy honey-salt rim and the jalapeño garnish), and making sure you have plenty of citrus on hand for when everyone is hankering for refills. —erica
