Fun WIth Booze!!! Bloody Mary Time



PLUS



EQUALS

Delicious.

I had some store bought veggie juice, and added some awesome stuff, and made a great Bloody Mary base. This is even better if you make it the night before...

Bloody Mary

2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 tbsp chopped onion
1 tsp horseradish (or more...)
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp adobo sauce (from a can of chipotles)
1/8 tsp sambal olek (thai chili garlic paste)

I put all of this, except the adobo and sambal, on a cutting board and chopped the heck out of it. You could probably use a blender or food processor, but I lack both of those. It's nice to know it can be done by hand.

Next I removed a bit of juice, maybe half a glass, and replaced it with the celery/onion mixture. I then added the adobo sauce and sambal. At this point, check for taste; it shouldn't be too spicy, but, trust me, it will get spicier if it sets over night. You can always add more adobo or sambal if you like. Once you've got that tasting FANTASTIC, shake it and let it sit in the refrigerator over night. Pour into a glass of ice, add vodka at will (or don't - it's damn tasty, spicy veggie juice), garnish with some celery and olives and enjoy!
