My favorite recipe for the Bloody emerges from years of experimentation. Think Jonas Salk behind a bar. What I have come up with in my lab is:

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 1

Ingredients

4 ounces of tomato juice
1/2 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
1 dash of lemon juice
2 drops of Tabasco
1 dash of pepper (to taste)
1 dash of salt (to taste)
1 1/2 ounces of Grey Goose vodka
1 dash of celery salt
smidgen of horseradish

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Shake and pour into a tall glass filled one-third with ice, garnish with green olives, and upsy-daisy. If that doesn't work, light three candles, take a cold shower, drink hot coffee, lie flat, and moan. And next time, try to behave.

    Step 2

    Begin by turning on music best suited for the occasion of a near-death hangover. A dirge is always nice. Then in a cocktail shaker, and, for those who like a kick in the head, a smidgen of horseradish.
