Ingredients
kosher salt
1 to 2
small
limes
(plus more for garnish)
1
(12-ounce) bottle
Modelo Especial
(or other Mexican Lager)
Instructions
Fill a small, shallow dish with kosher salt.
Cut a small wedge from a lime and use it to wet the rim of a tall glass.
Dip the rim into salt. Then, fill the glass half full with ice.
Add juice from 1 to 2 limes (to taste) to the glass. (If you prefer, use a fine mesh strainer to strain out the pulp first.)
Fill glass with beer, then garnish with a slice of lime, if desired.
Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
Spice things up by rimming your glasses with
Tajín
instead of salt.
