Super refreshing, a light lager mixed with both citrus lime and orange, as well as tequila blanco and a touch of sweet syrup and poured over crushed-ice, there really is nothing better on a hot, summer afternoon (or anytime in Mexico!).
Chelada: the best of tequila, lime and orange juice over crushed ice.
