Summer Sips: The Michelada

In the June issue of Bon Appetit [2], the food mag features a recipe for the fiery michelada. This sizzling concoction of beer, Tabasco, lime, and salt is a summer refresher with after-burners. The first sip is cool and refreshing, then the slow burn of Tabasco takes over, leading to another gulp. For a bit of the legend surrounding the thirst-quencher, read our story "Cerveza en Fuego [3]" from last summer. And, if you don't want to mix up a michelada yourself, order one at Mezcal [4] or Tambien [5]. Mezcal, 3230 E. Colfax Ave., 303-322-5219; Tambien, 250 Steele St., 303-333-1763
