In its simplest form, a Michelada is a Mexican lager gussied up with hot sauce, lime juice, and salt. Theyre refreshing, spicy, salty, easy to make, and about as crowd-pleasing as beer cocktails get.

And as long as a gin contains a strong presence of juniper berries in its profile, distillers are free to infuse just about any flowers, herbs, botanicals, and fruits into their products. As such, customers can expect some juniper notes in any given gin, but the salad of other aromatics at play is going to differ from brand to brand and bottle

If you operate a bar, night club, or a pub, youre inherently responsible for the people inside the building. This includes customers as well as the employees who keep things running. However, as people relax and potentially drink alcohol, they might loosen their inhibitions. This makes things more fun, but it does add a measure of risk as well. This means that, if you want to make sure that people are safe and continue to have a good time, you need to put some measures in place.
