Beer and a Snack!
Theres nothing better then a relaxing beer and a botana (boe-tah na) spanish for snack! Two months ago i went to guanajuato (wana-juaaa-toe) Mexico, and I was introduced to a Michelada (me che la duh) a beer that consist of a mix of assorted condiments. With a icy cold beer, Worcestershire sauce, a seasoning liquid, fresh lime juice, salt and hot sauce. now your probably sitting there think OMG this sounds like a pep-to bismo case. Truthfully its not the mix adds a spicy flavor to the beer with the outcome of delicious in the picture above its a dos xx clear lager of course its your choice in preference!
Now when I think of beer I think snack! Like at a bar they offer you peanuts or chips, well I took another step a mix of churritos (chew rea toes) fried chips usually made fresh. Sum of you may recognize from the ones the Latino ice cream man sells of his bicycle for a dollar. the picture shows these chips covered in Hot sauce, Pico de gallo in the center and drizzled with sour cream. making these a good condiment to an icy cold beer on a hot summer day!
