The el conejo malo, or “the bad bunny,” is a spicier, edgier take on the traditional michelada. Created by Sean Beck, the beverage director of H Town Restaurant Group in Houston, this cocktail rounds out the michelada menu at URBE, a Mexican street eats restaurant. This spicy michelada recipe combines a breakfast-appropriate mango-carrot-orange juice base and a sinister kick of agua chile flakes. While you can make the juice base at home, a store-bought juice or bottled mango smoothie provides an easy shortcut.
