Visste dere at den skal dyttes nedi tuten, og grunnen til at mexikanerene begynte med det er for å unngå fluer i ølen ?
Jeg har hørt at limen i utgangspunktet ikke skal oppi ølen i det hele tatt. Det ble i utgangspunktet brukt for å renserundt tuten på flaska.
Ser det er flere teorier rundt dette:
Theory #1:
Whenever beer is exposed to sunlight or heat, it develops a skunky taste. This is why most beers on the market are served in dark bottles. Corona is served in a clear bottle. Therefore, the purpose for the lime to be served with the Corona is to mask that skunky taste.
Theory #2:
Serving a lime with a bottle of Corona was originally intended for sanitary purposes. The lime was used to disinfect the rim of the bottle.
Theory #3:
A bartender in Mexico started the trend of serving Corona with a lime because it was the presence of citrus fruit (lime or lemon) that would keep flies away from entering the bottle so that fly spray wouldn’t have to be used. The use of fly spray was blamed for altering the taste of the beer. According to this theory, the lime was just supposed to stay in the neck of the bottle. It was actually tourists whom started pushing the lime into the bottle. Apparently, people of Mexico enjoy their Corona minus the lime.
Theory #4:
The lime in the Corona bottle was a marketing gimmick that stuck with the gringos. That’s why you see limes in all of the Corona bottles in advertisements.
Theory #5:
Limes are a cheap commodity in Mexico therefore they are added to most drinks and not just bottles of Corona.
Uansett passer lime til stort sett ALL lys øl. Jeg har drukket alt fra norsk tuborg, og andre billigøl med lime til stort hell på sommeren
Da har du smakt billig/dårlig champagne.

er gode. Helst skal champis drikkes av magnumflasker da de er lagret bedre, og får enda bedre smak.
