Im from the beautiful city of San Diego and travel across the border to Tijauna all the time, and this is a Michelada here. I dont know how they make them in IL. Many places give you other options.. so at the end, its what ever your preferance is. And trust me, she is as authentic as they come in Tijuana, if you dont like it then change the channel sweetheart! I love her recipes.

Ahhhh...I crave Michelada's!! This tasty beverage can be made in a variety of ways. Why not try them all? My favorite is Marcela's recipe with a few shots of Tapatio Hot Sauce, just like my Tia and Tio make them. Yummy!

I have to agree with some of the prior comments about Marcela's recipe being partially accurate given that different regions of Mexico prepare it differently. One thing that is for sure, though worcestershire sauce is tasty in a Michelada, IT DOESN'T Make it authentic due to the lack of worcestershire sauce is the small pueblos in Mexico or Tabasco sauce for a matter of fact. So, Texans keep you opinions to yourself.
