About Eva Longoria’s Journey Through Mexican Cuisine
Eva Longoria’s 2023 CNN show Searching for Mexico showcased the food and culture of six diverse regions in the southern country, with the aim to illustrate Mexico’s multifaceted offerings beyond the clichés of tacos and tequila. She inspired us to dive deeper into time-honored Mexican cuisine, including trying out a Michelada recipe. Some variations of the Michelada recipe include adding tomato juice, clamato juice, or even a splash of Maggi sauce. Feel free to experiment and customize.
