Margarita 

While margaritas are the most standard answer to the question 

“What are the traditional drinks of Mexico?”  

Every Mexican Restaurant in Hong Kong serving Mexican cocktails has its distinctive flavor and style for margaritas.  

Lime is the traditional flavor for margaritas, but mixologists experiment with other fruits and vegetables, like pineapple, cucumber, and jalapeno, or more exotic flavors like tamarind and prickly pear. You may even find a margarita blended with tajin herbs rather than the usual salt. 

Chamoyada

Chamoy is produced from pickled fruits, and it is served in different ways like in the form of a paste, liquid. 

Craft Beers

Beer is the second most adored drink in Mexico after tequila. Many new or old breweries serve beers worldwide, but you will discover small-scale local craft beers in Mexican Restaurants. The variety will be less compared to the US, but the craft beers of Mexico can rival any others in flavor and freshness.  

Mexican beer is vaster than just Corona. There is a wealthy craft beer tradition in Mexico, and although not as old as in other countries, a taste for good beer developed and has taken hold.  

Multiple craft breweries have arisen in many Hong Kong claiming to offer freshly brewed beer, but not all of them got the hands for it.

Paloma is served in a tall and slim glass loaded with ice, salt seasoning, tequila and little lime juice, sparkled with soda and garnished with parsley to make your day. 

Mexican Wines 

We always think about Italy or France when we hear “wine,” but some prefer wine from Mexico. Several vineyards produce excellent bottles since the Baja Peninsula extends south of California.  

Mexico is not a wine-drinking region, but people all across the globe love Mexican wine. Many Mexican wine producers have won international awards for their excellent products like Casa Magoni, LA Cetto, Bodega Dos Búhos and many more.

Micheladas are also famous for hangover cures, so you will commonly see them served with brunch. 

However, micheladas are certainly delicious. Sometimes you will not feel good about drinking a sauce, so you can go for a much lighter version, a refreshing michelada: beer, lime juice, and salt to help you feel the pulpiness of the Caribbean atmosphere.
