Best Bloody Mary...ingredients

[Iwantmychairback]

I’ll start this by saying I rarely drink and have never tasted Vodka.

I found out the other day that mum and dad like a sneaky Bloody Mary of an evening, so I thought that part of their Christmas present could be a kit of all the necessary ingredients.
So what do I need to buy please? Easily available from major supermarkets. Which brands are best etc?

Tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, vodka, tabasco sauce maybe

Add celelery salt and if factoring perishable items, Celery stalks and fresh Horseradish.

Get the poshest tomato juice you can find. A lot of people (me included) also add a dash of fino or amontillado sherry.

All the above plus a lemon as it needs lemon juice and slices to garnish

Big Tom tomato juice then add more seasoning.

Big Tom, Worcestershire sauce, celery salt

The best tomato juice you can get, Worcester sauce, tabasco and i like a good squeeze of lime and plenty salt and pepper. Not a fan of a blood mary with any other alcohol apart from vodka.

I prefer mine with vegetable juice rather than straight tomato (Campbell's V8 if available) as it is less acidic.
