The iconic San Antonio based company, best known for their citrus flavored beer salts, Twang, just launched their first liquid product, Twang Reserve Michelada Cocktail Mix. Texans can create their very own Michelada from the comfort of their home with the Treviño and his family recipe, made right here in Texas. Twang added the premium, vegetable-based mix to its lineup to celebrate the beloved tradition of the Mexican Michelada which typically combines Mexican beers or domestic lagers with a mix of spices. When throwing a boozy brunch or cocktail party, Twang Reserve Michelada Cocktail Mix can be rimmed with Twang’s other popular salts, including Michelada Beer Salt, ZAS! Mango Chili Seasoning and Twang-A-Rita Sunrise Spice. You can find the new Michelada mix at your local Spec’s. Twang’s other products are available online and on Amazon.

What is a michelada? A Michelada is made with beer, lime juice, assorted sauces, spices, tomato juice and chili peppers. It is traditionally served in a chilled, salt-rimmed glass. This beer cocktail is considered, by many, a lighter and more approachable version of its American cousin, the Bloody Mary. Try one for yourself with these three recipes!
