The Best Bloody Mary
Nothing says brunch and/or the morning after like the Bloody Mary. When it’s really needed even a mediocre Bloody Mary is good but a great Bloody Mary sticks in your memory for years. The Bloody Mary is all about the mix. Use a substandard mix and you’ll have a rather forgettable cocktail despite the use of even the best Vodka. Speaking of Vodka… BevX recommends using a quality, and sensibly priced Vodka. There is no better way to spot a status seeking fool than to witness someone at the bar ordering a Bloody Mary with the addition of the posh, ultra-premium Vodka of the moment.
Ingredients
2 oz. Vodka
BevX Best Bloody Mary Mix -

Occasion
Serve the Bloody Mary all year long but if you have one after the sun goes down please move to another table.
Method
Rim a tall highball glass with salt, celery seed, and black pepper by first wetting the glass with a lime wedge. Fill the glass with ice and then add the Vodka followed by the mix. Add the garnish and enjoy.

Add your own favorite garnish – let the imagination go wild.
