The Bloody Mary has been around for ages, and while it’s not a favourite of mine( I think it has to do with tomato juice and tabasco in the cocktail ) a number of people swear by this cocktail.
The last time I had one was when I was nursing a hangover and while I do not like this cocktail very much it really did help.
Ingredients
- 30ml vodka
- 125ml tomato juice
- Worcestershire sauce.
- lemon juice.
- dill pickle juice
- Tabasco sauce.
- horseradish sauce
- Celery sticks
While the list of ingredients is exhaustive you could make do with the vodka, tomato juice and tabasco sauce.
Steps
- Mix 30ml of vodka, 125ml of tomato juice , 2 dashes of Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, dill pickle juice, Tabasco sauce, horseradish sauce, celery salt, lemon juice and pepper and perhaps a slice of lemon/stick of celery for decoration.
- Shake all the ingredients in a tumbler.
- Pour into a glass filled with crushed ice,you can use ice cubes but the texture wouldn’t be the same.
- The celery stick makes a nice addition to the cocktail however if it isn’t fresh please avoid it. You might want to try leaving a few of these sticks in a tomato / vodka concontion in your fridge overnight. It should allow the celery stick to absorb the flavour and make it taste better.
- Some people like to throw in a sliced green chili to give it a bit of a zing.
To make a Virgin Mary you need to follow the same steps but leave out the alcohol
