Modelo Chelada® Especial is a traditional michelada-style beer with the refreshing flavors of tomato, salt, and lime. Its authentic ingredients give way to a delicious, well-balanced taste.
RecipePreparation Slightly pop the top of a Modelo Especial can, enough to release pressure but do not fully open. Squeeze lime juice onto the top of the can rim. Add a few shakes of beer salt and Tabasco over the opening. Serve the remaining Modelo Especial with the cocktail.
You can create your own authentic michelada experience with the Modelo Chelada® Limón y Sal. Garnish the rim of your glass with salty sweet chamoy and chile powder and add some extra zing with a splash of lime juice. Want your michelada to pack an extra twist? Add a shot of tequila, and enjoy.

It is customary (or sort of customary) in some Latin American countries, especially in Mexico, to serve pale lagers (think Corona, Dos Equis, Tecate, Modelo) in a chilled, salt-rimmed glass, much like a margarita. Basically, you wet the glass rim with a lime and then turn it upside down and dip it into the salt.
At its best, a michelada is one of the great drinks of summer, a low-alcohol concoction of cheap, light Mexican beer (think Modelo, Victoria, Tecate, PacÃfico, or Corona); fresh lime juice; and chile heat.
Modelo is my jam and if you haven't yet, you need to pour one in a glass, squeeze a lime chunk in there and give it a couple shakes of tajin seasoning, it will change your life.
