Mexican Beer Mash Up: The Clamato Michelada This summer Clamato is unveiling its new cocktail recipe; The Authentic Michelada! The Michelada was born in Mexico and people would spar over how it got its name. The most bandied about explanation is that it’s a shortening of mi chela helada or “my cold beer.” When it’s blisteringly hot — and Micheladas are typically thought of as an everyday drink or a morning-after hangover cure — is there anything more refreshing for your customers than a beer cocktail with lots of ice cubes in a tall glass? The Michelada is one of the most popular drinks in Mexico. It is a beer-based cocktail made with lime, hot sauce (to taste), Worcestershire, and Clamato tomato cocktail, all served over ice in a tall glass with a salted rim. People are craving for something refreshing, savoury to try something new. Stock up to impress your consumers with Clamato.
