Bloody Mary recipes

I would just doctor up a good mix.

quote:

---

vodka (I prefer Stolichnaya), a few drops of Lea & Perrins, a few drops of Tabasco, a modest sprinkling of celery salt, and some cayenne pepper.

I would do most of this with lime juice except still use a mix.

Zing Zang

---

Start here, get some Tito's vodka, and all the fixings. Hard to go wrong if you just put it out and let folks fix their own

Buy a jug of tomato juice and add salt, pepper, lemon, lime, horseradish, worcestershire and hot sauce and mix thoroughly. Even better if you mix it up days in advance and let sit in fridge.

Fill pint glass with ice and fill 1/3 full of vodka. Top off with mix. Pout that pint glass into an empty pint glass. Take the now empty pint glass glaze the rim with a slice of lemon or lime and then dip the rim into some cajun seasoning. Then dump the full glass back into the seasoned lined rim empty glass.

Garnish with whatever you like or have on hand.

Whatever you do, stay away from the Zing Zang. That stuff is

V-8
Vodka
Dash or worser shire
Dash of celery salt
Dask or LA Hot Sauce
Tsp pickle juice
Ice

Try muddling a cut cucumber in the vodka before adding the tomato juice or mix. Sounds odd, but really works.

I like to add a lot of pickled stuff and with a mix its always too much sodium for how many I want to drink

Have you ever added Pickled Okra? I have several jars I made up this summer from the garden, and I may try this.

V-8, squeeze lemon, lee and perrins, Louisiana hot sauce, celery salt, light salt, black pepper, vodka, and whatever garnishes you want

That is the Spahrs recipe.
