A michelada is defined as a Mexican cerveza preparada made with beer, lime juice and assorted sauces, spices and peppers and served in a chilled, salt-rimmed glass. Thursday July 12 is National Michelada Day, a day dedicated to sipping on the popular Mexican beer cocktail. Twang is a family-owned and operated creator and manufacturer of premium-flavored salts, sugars and seasonings based in San Antonio, Texas. ZAS! products are available throughout the country in 46 states, in grocery stores, convenience stores and online.

Their products feature salts and seasonings, including Beer Salt, and are designed to easily add flavor to drinks and elevate home-made alcoholic beverages to cocktail bar status. Twang Clamato Salt and Michelada Beer Salt are two products specifically designed to pair with the michelada, the spicy, tomato lime mix introduced to by Mexico, which has since become a staple throughout South Texas where the family behind Twang is based. While Micheladas originated in Mexico, their fun, zesty style has reached spicy drink lovers across the country. (Twang, 2018)
