How to Make Classic Bloody Mary Cocktail
- Using a thin lemon wedge run the rim of the glasses getting it wet with the lemon juice. Place several teaspoons of celery salt on a sallow plate and dredge the wet rims of the glasses through the celery salt.
- In a large pitcher stir together lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon celery salt, V8 vegetable juice, vodka, horseradish, brown sugar, Worcestershire Sauce. Tabasco Sauce, pepper and pickle juice. Chill for at least 2 hours.
- Pour over ice filled glasses and garnish as desired with green olives, grape tomatoes, dill pickle spears, bacon or pickled green beans.
- NOTES
Use 1/2 teaspoon from any remaining celery salt from the rimming of the glasses to mix in.
Garnish as desired. See my complete list of garnishment ideas in the post.
