The Bloody Mary is the Pizza Hut salad bar of the cocktail world: It’s easy to go overboard with toppings and mix-ins. What starts as a perfectly balanced brunch drink can quickly transform into a Frankenstein’s monster of a cocktail.
The original Bloody Mary is believed to have contained seven ingredients: vodka, tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, celery salt, Tabasco and lemon juice. But like many classic drinks, it has inspired several variations. Popular versions include the Bloody Maria (made with tequila), the Red Snapper (spiked with gin) and the Caesar, a Canadian creation that features Clamato juice. Throw in the recipes concocted by bars, bartenders and enthusiasts, and the tomato-based cocktail sports countless unique twists, from heavy on the hot sauce to a splash of Guinness on top.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Vodka
.75 oz Lemon Juice
Tomato Juice
1 tbsp Horseradish
1 tsp Celery Salt
4 dashes Tabasco Sauce
4 hefty dashes Worcestershire Sauce
1 Celery Stalk
Preparation
Squeeze lemon and lime wedges into a shaker. Add all other ingredients except vodka, and stir. Taste the mix, and adjust the seasoning if needed. Put the mix in the fridge, and let it sit overnight.
Pour vodka into the shaker. Add ice cubes, and shake.
Fill an 8-ounce glass about halfway with ice, and strain the shaker contents over it.
For garnish, I prefer a slice of seedless cucumber, also known as a hothouse or English cucumber, rather than celery. (This isn’t a deal breaker, though.) Cut a 1/2-inch-thick slice of cucumber on the bias. Cut a slit in the slice, and place on the rim of the glass. Spear the pitted green olive with a toothpick, and stick it through the rind of the lemon wedge. Place the wedge on the rim of the glass. Crack a little freshly ground pepper on top.
