Chili limon (such as Tajin)

1 orange wedge
-
1 cup cold birria broth (caldo), skimmed of all fat, strained

2 ounces fresh lime juice, optional

1 ounce fresh orange juice

Cold beer (such as Pacifico, or a saison or sour), for topping off

Directions
-
Place a thin layer of the chili limon on a small plate. Run the orange wedge around the rim of 2 pint glasses, then dip the rims of the glasses in the chili limon to coat. In a cocktail shaker, add the birria broth, lime juice (if using), orange juice, and tequila. Add hot sauce, Salsa Maggi, and vinegar to taste. Fill the cocktail shaker with ice and carefully secure the lid.
-
Shake the contents vigorously for at least 30 seconds. Strain the contents of the shaker into the glasses, dividing equally. Top off with the beer and stir to blend with a cocktail spoon. Garnish with the lime wedges.
