Hoppy Michelada

A bold twist on a classic, this Hoppy Michelada brings a vibrant mix of spice, citrus, and refreshing hops. The chilli–salt rim sets the tone, giving each sip a little kick before you dive into the savoury tomato base enriched with Worcestershire and hot sauce. A splash of tequila adds depth, while Emerson’s Day Tripper Low Carb Hazy IPA brings a crisp, hoppy finish that lifts the whole drink. Fresh lime ties everything together, creating a bright, zesty michelada that’s perfect for sunny afternoons, shared snacks, or any moment that calls for something a little fun and fiery.
