This is much more revitalizing than a Bloody Mary, morning, noon, or night. It's a feisty drink to imbibe at Guadalajara's El Patio Tapatío, while listening to mariachis bellow lusty rancheras (ranch songs). Patrons enthusiastically sing along, after spending a day bargaining for pottery, silver jewelry, curios, and crafts in Tlaquepaque. Or serve it at your next Sunday brunch…and wish you were in Jalisco.
Super easy
5 ounces Sangrita La Lucinda
1 3/4 ounces silver or reposado tequila
1/2 lime's juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoons grated onion
Garnishes: fluted scallion or chile pepper flower, orange slice dusted with chile powder, lime wedge
María Sangrita (Mexican Bloody Mary) Directions
Fill a tall glass with ice and mix in the ingredients. Use a fluted scallion as a swizzle stick, or hook an orange slice dusted with chile powder, a chile pepper flower, or a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
