Drinking well can be such a bother. I like a strong drink now and again but I also like to linger over a drink and not get too drunk. On my last trip to Mexico I discovered how great a shot and a sangrita can be. The shot is invariably tequila and the sangrita is a chaser that can be a spicy tomato mixture or a sweet and spicy citrus drink. There seems to be as many versions as there are bars. I liked almost all of them except for the commercial version which was cloying in its sweetness.
I've never made it, and obviously that's the next step. If you have a recipe I should try, please pass it on and I'll do the same.
