CHAMOYADA!!
The fun cousin to the traditional michelada, a https://pinaenlacocina.com/chamoyada-michelada-with-chamoy/chamoyada! One thing I can say about Mexican recipes, is that we really love to layer on the flavors! Whether it’s traditional savory dishes or cocktails, it’s a tasty adventure every time! Chamoy is a cross between a salsa, a sauce and a condiment in a way. My homemade chamoy is a mix of dried hibiscus, fruit, like mango, pineapple or apricots and dried chiles. It great for the rim of Mexican cocktails, agua fresca, fresh fruit, tostilocos, chicharron preparado and more!
Vampiro!
This cocktail for vampiro reminds me so much of the holidays spent in Monterrey, Mexico! It was a festive time with my huge family and extended family that left the most beautiful memories.

You can add coarse salt to the rim of the glass.
