- 1/2 cup tomato juice
- 12 ounces beer
- .....................................................................................................................................
- Beer is always the main ingredient; tomato juice is second fiddle; but the exact ratio can vary from an effervescent 5:1, in which the beer is merely flavored, to a 2:1 mix as fruity as a drink in a health food juice bar.
- V-8 juice, regular or spicy, may be substituted for the tomato juice if desired.

The Beer Gods are smiling on you. A good friend (r.i.p.) made this with about a cup of Clamato, a squirt or more of hot sauce, and filled up the 16 oz glass the rest of the way with Tecate (Mexican beer). Damn good stuff!! Ya know whaddamean, Vern??

I love this, I like to add jalapeno and celery salt, to this for an extra kick. I seed and then chop jalapeno and add it to the tomato juice before we add the beer. they also make a Bud Light version called Chelada. Very tasty also.

One of my most favorite drinks. In the summer when we meet our motorcycle buddies at 10:00 to start out a day ride. You've got to have a couple of these, especially if you've not had breakfast.

I don't think you ever need to justify drinking beer. = )
