MAKE IT YOUR OWN
Michelada with shrimp (Michelada Cubana), build-your-own station with chamoy and Tajin, or a Chelada (just beer + lime + salt for lighter guests).
Bartender's Secret
Pro tip: Chill the glass in the freezer for 15 minutes before building. A frosted glass keeps the beer crisp and the drink ice-cold for longer.
