Worm Salt Ft. Rusa
Two things you can find walking around different cities in Mexico are Rusas and dehydrated chili bugs. Rusas are non-alcoholic, citrusy, and refreshing street beverages, but to kick it up a notch, why not season and coat the rim of this delicious drink with worm salt (ground dehydrated worms with salt and chili powder)?
