Recipe from Season 3 of Mexico - One Plate at a Time 

Ingredients

A lime and a small plateful of coarse (Kosher) salt
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
About 1/8 teaspoon Maggi Sauce (Jugo Maggi)
About 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (or Mexican salsa inglesa), or to taste
About 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Tabasco Pepper Sauce, Tamazula or Valentina), or to taste
1 12-ounce beer (such as Bohemia for lighter beer lovers, Dos Equis or Negra Modelo for darker beer lovers)

Directions

Cut the lime in half. Rub one half over the rim of a large (16-ounce) beer mug to moisten it. Invert the mug and dip lightly in the salt.

Fill the mug half full with ice, then add the lime juice, Maggi Sauce, Worcestershire and hot sauce. Fill the mug with beer, stir just enough to combine everything, then enjoy.
