Michelada Bombs are a fun and flavorful way to enhance your beer drinking experience. These tangy, spicy, and salty bombs combine chile-lime seasoning, chamoy, hot sauce, and Pulparindots candies to create a burst of michelada flavor when dropped into a cold beer. Perfect for parties or casual gatherings, they offer an exciting twist on the classic Mexican michelada cocktail.

Ingredients

Scale

Seasoning Mix

  • ¾ cup chile-lime seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons food-grade citric acid
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda

Liquid Flavorings

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce (or vegan Worcestershire sauce)
  • 1–3 teaspoons chamoy sauce
  • 1–3 teaspoons Valentina hot sauce

Additional Ingredients

  • 12 Pulparindots candies
  • 6 bottles of beer (Modelo, Sol, Pacifico, or similar)
  • Lime wedges for garnish
  • Salt for rimming glasses

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the chile-lime seasoning, food-grade citric acid, and baking soda thoroughly to create the seasoning base.
  2. Add Sauces: Add soy sauce (or vegan Worcestershire), 1 teaspoon chamoy sauce, and 1 teaspoon Valentina hot sauce to the seasoning mixture. Stir and start pressing the mixture together with a spatula or your hands until it sticks well. Adjust by adding more chamoy or hot sauce if the mixture falls apart when pinched.
  3. Shape Michelada Bombs: Transfer the sticky mixture into dome-shaped silicone molds or use a measuring spoon (½ or 1 tablespoon size). Press the mixture down firmly to make compact spheres.
  4. Incorporate Pulparindots: If using Pulparindots candies, fill half of the mold with the mixture, press firmly, then place one candy in the center. Add the remaining mixture and press again to enclose the candy.
  5. Freeze: Cover the molds and freeze overnight or for at least 1-2 hours until the bombs are solid.
  6. Serve: Rim your beer glasses with lime juice and dip in salt, chamoy, and Tajin for extra flavor. Pour in chilled beer and drop one michelada bomb into each glass. Enjoy the flavor explosion as the bomb dissolves!

Notes

  • The amount of chamoy and hot sauce can be adjusted according to your heat preference.
  • Use vegan Worcestershire or soy sauce to keep the recipe vegan-friendly.
  • Ensure the bombs are pressed firmly into the molds to maintain their shape when frozen.
  • For best flavor, use light Mexican lagers such as Modelo, Sol, or Pacifico.
  • Salt and chamoy rim dips enhance the traditional michelada experience.
