🥄 Ingredients

  • 1 12 ounce beer
  • 2 teaspoons Valentina hot sauce
  • juice of 1 lime (approx. 2 tablespoons)
  • 1/4 teaspoon horseradish
  • splash of adobo sauce (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Add a thin layer of salt to small plate along with dashes of chipotle powder.  Combine well. 

  2. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of the glass and dredge it in the salt.  (I usually only rub the lime around half of the glass.) 

  3. Add 2 teaspoons of hot sauce (Valentina) to the glass, along with the juice of 1 lime, 1/4 teaspoon horseradish sauce, freshly cracked black pepper, and a splash of adobo sauce (optional).

  4. Combine well and serve immediately.
