I like the occasional BM. Only a few people I know that can make them taste worth a damn.

99 cents for a BM in '33? Come on, it had to be cheaper then that! For Christmary's sake it was the Great Depression after all! Subby has never obviously never tried tobasco before either!

I dunno, beer+clam juice has to rank right up there...unless that doesn't count as a mixed drink. Still nasty, though.

If you are stupid enough to drink your Blood Mary (or anything else) with Grey Goose then shoot yourself because you fell for the most hilarious marketing scam known to the alcohol industry. A genius scam, though.

A Caesar, sometimes referred to as a Bloody Caesar, after the similar Bloody Mary, is a cocktail popular mainly in Canada. It typically contains vodka, clamato (a blend of tomato juice and clam broth), Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, and is served on the rocks in a large, celery salt-rimmed glass, and typically garnished with a stalk of celery

The cocktail was invented by bartender Walter Chell at the Owl's Nest Bar in the Calgary Inn (now Calgary Westin Hotel) in Calgary, Alberta in 1969, to accompany the opening of a new restaurant, Marco's. In its original form, it contained tomato juice and mashed clams; Clamato had only just been released (with the assistance of Chell) by the Mott's company that very year, and was not yet widely known or available.


Also, Prairie Fire shot
½ to 1 part Tabasco sauce
1 part Yukon Jack

The guy was smart, though. Take cheap crap (it is really hard to make a crappy vodak) and put it in a nice bottle. Then serve it at nice clubs, have a few celebrities drink it, and bam. Now you have suckers who pay $30 for something they can buy for $8. Sort of like TotalFark.

My dad makes something called a Bloody Bull with tomato juice, beef bouillon, celery seed, tabasco, lemon and lime juice...with or without the vodka it's good.

He's also known to drink a mixture of beer and tomato juice, but that is just nasty....

Wait, a blood bull has those things in it? Crazy! Well, my mom drinks this thing called gin and tonic. It has gin and tonic water and a lime in it!

Well, the driving and drinking is likely to lead to the shiats was my point. Then again, I guess most people in New York don't spend all night drinking the Beast.

I love Bloody Marys. In fact I had one this morning with breakfast.

But I don't like Tabasco in mine. Horseradish is plenty spicy for me. Also the key is to put two to three times the amount of Worcester sauce you normally would and a slice of fresh lemon.

/How bout a Bloody, buddy?
//Don't mind if I do.

Why drink a Bloody Mary? Because it tastes like a meal, which is why it is a popular morning after drink. My recipe:

The night before:
add to 1 quart V8 juice:
1 tblsp chopped garlic
1 tsp fresh ground pepper
1/2 tsp worstershire sauce
1/2 tsp red pepper sauce or more according to taste (not Tabasco brand red pepper sauce - too vinegar-y)
Shake vigorously
Allow to sit overnight to meld ingredients

to mix:
Shake V8 mix vigorously
Serve 1 part vodka 2 parts V8 mix over ice in a highball glass
garnish with olive, celery stock, and pickled aspargus stalk

Enjoy!

 
Catsmeow 2008-11-30 07:34:15 PM  
Worschestershire sauce. Yes. That's in the Bloody Bull too. And he sometimes added smoked salt. Mix, chill, drink very cold.

I like my Bloody with meat.

Warm, oozing, corpulescent meat.

 
ShutUpMonkey 2008-11-30 07:39:47 PM  
To those of you who say "eewww, gross..." you'll like them when you're of legal age, and hung over.

My recipe:

4 oz vodka
1 oz Dry Vermouth (yep, kinda like a martini)
dash of dill pickle juice
dash of olive juice
1-2 dashes of habanero sauce
2 dashes Worcestershire
1 dash salt
1 dash pepper
8-10 oz tomato juice
shake vigorously w/ ice
Pour into glass
Garnish w/ 2 garlic-stuffed olives

Serves 1

Enjoy! So far, all my friends have LOVED my recipe. :)

/wait, we're all biker trash
//probably has something to do with it

chrisco123: Doesn't hold a candle to a Bloody Caesar.

So true.

Horseradish is great in Caesars; try it if you haven't yet. You will not be disappointed (unless you hate horseradish, but then you've got bigger problems).

Asparagus works as a great substitute for celery stalks.

Also, if you're a skewer user try feta. It's great with Caesars.

/Bloody Marys are nowhere near as good

How about a bloody Maria?

justbeer.files.wordpress.com

Tried one of these the other night, just as a joke. It didn't suck, is all I can say.

 
FlashHarry [TotalFark] 2008-11-30 07:46:36 PM  
the key to a good bloody mary is pickle brine and horseradish.

or you could try the drink a friend of mine and i invented, the "vic tayback:"

in a rocks glass over ice, combine:
1 1/2 shot vodka
1 cup Heinz 57 steak sauce
garnish with 1 cube of rare steak

 
Mucus Mule 2008-11-30 07:46:43 PM  
Forget the Worcestershire.
Try A1 or HP
It rounds out the taste

It is popular with Mexicans for some reason. I guess they have an affinity for tomato and clam juice with beer mixed in it.

Thanks but no thanks. I've never found Budweiser very good, with or without chlamydia juice.
