Micheladas With Tajin Food

I'm lucky enough to live in an area with a large Hispanic population and what seems like a Mexican restaurant or taqueria on every corner. They each have their own michelada recipe, and this is my version of my favorite. Maggi®Jugo seasoning can be found in the international aisle of your grocery store or Hispanic markets and provides an umami flavor. You may substitute soy sauce if necessary. Add more hot sauce if you prefer!

And just what is in a michelada? In Mexico City, it consists of fresh lime juice, a trinity of Tabasco, Worcestershire and soy sauces, a pinch of black pepper and maybe (or maybe not) a dash of Maggi, the seasoning usually used for soups and stews. This mix makes up two or three fingers' worth of a tall glass. That glass needs ice in it. It needs beer. And it needs drinking. At least, I certainly think it does. It might sound like a hangover recipe, but to me it tastes like malted manna.
