The Bloody Mary is a classic cocktail known for its savory and robust flavors. It's often associated with brunch and is known for its distinctive red color. Here's a typical recipe for a Bloody Mary:
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz vodka
3 oz tomato juice
1/2 oz lemon juice
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Dash of hot sauce (e.g., Tabasco)
Pinch of salt and pepper
Celery salt (for rimming the glass, optional)
Ice cubes
Garnishes: Celery stalk, lemon wedge, olives, and/or pickles
Instructions:
If desired, rim the glass with celery salt. To do this, wet the rim of the glass with a lemon wedge and dip it into celery salt on a plate to coat the rim.
Fill the glass with ice cubes.
In a shaker, combine vodka, tomato juice, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, salt, and pepper.
Shake the mixture well to combine the ingredients and chill the drink.
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass over the ice.
Garnish the Bloody Mary with a celery stalk, lemon wedge, olives, and/or pickles.
Optionally, add more hot sauce or other seasonings to taste.
The key to a great Bloody Mary is finding the right balance of flavors. Some variations of the cocktail include using different types of hot sauce, adding horseradish for extra spice, or incorporating unique garnishes.
The origins of the Bloody Mary are a bit unclear, but it has become a popular and iconic cocktail. It's customizable, allowing people to adjust the ingredients to suit their taste preferences. The Bloody Mary is not only enjoyed for its taste but also for its reputation as a "hair of the dog" remedy, believed by some to alleviate the effects of a hangover.
