The combination of Mexican beer with lime has long been a favorite. If you are ready to step beyond stuffing your Corona bottle with a lime wedge, then you have to give this easy chelada recipe a try. It has all of the same great flavors, but it is more of a properly mixed drink than a dressed-up beer.

This simple and refreshing drink was provided by Crown Imports. They handle the U.S. imports for Grupo Modelo whose beers include popular Mexican brands such as​ Corona Extra, Corona Light, Modelo Especial, and Pacifico. Any of these brands would be a good choice for making an authentic Mexican chelada, though any light lager style of beer will do. Why not try a locally brewed beer?
