Spicy Bloody Mary
Bold, savory, and perfectly spiced, this iconic brunch cocktail hits all the right notes. It pairs chilled vodka and rich tomato juice with a sharp kick of Tabasco and Worcestershire sauce. Fresh lemon juice and a pinch of celery salt cut through the richness to balance those deep flavors. You'll love how easily it mixes up right in the glass, leaving you more time to enjoy your morning.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 dash Tabasco sauce
- 25ml (1fl oz) vodka, chilled
- 150ml (1¼ pints) tomato juice, chilled
- lemon juice to taste
- celery salt to taste
- 1 celery stick, with the leaves left on to serve
Instructions
- 1Combine the Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, chilled vodka, and tomato juice in a tall glass. Stir well to ensure the spices distribute evenly through the tomato juice.
- 2Drop in a few ice cubes, then season with lemon juice and celery salt to your preference. Garnish with a leafy celery stick.
Notes
- Swap: Substitute tequila for the vodka to make a Bloody Maria, or gin for a Red Snapper.
- Tip: Roll a lemon wedge around the rim of your glass and dip it in celery salt or Tajin for an extra layer of flavor.
- Make ahead: Mix the tomato juice, sauces, and spices in a pitcher up to a day in advance. Add the vodka and ice just before pouring.
