Bloody Mary

10. It’s the drink that eats like a meal.
9. Next to a Screwdriver and Mimosa, it’s one of the few cocktails you can enjoy in the morning without raising alcoholic suspicions.
8. You can skip lunch and still eat.
7. Because I have a bottle of great vodka at home that will spoil and go bad very, very soon.
(If I repeat this enough you might believe me.)6. Horseradish.
5. Because tomato juice is packed with vitamins and is good for you.
4. Anything with a big celery stalk in it is fun.
3. Because I have yet to savor the ideal Bloody Mary. Practice makes perfect, you know.
2. Because it’s easily customized; anchovies and garlic stuffed olives, anyone?
1. Because it’s really been one of those days.
No recipe? That is a tease then! Yes I am one of those who does not know much about coktails, I admit!
Okay NOW you are making ME hungry!
i had my first taste of a bloody mary when i was 3, and i remember it very clearly. my grandmother had girlfriends over for sunday brunch, and because i thought she was drinking V8, and i *adore* V8, i bothered her incessantly for a taste until she caved in... in one of those "this'll teach her" sort of moves, she raised the glass to my lips and had to PRY it out of my hands. her child-psychology had backfired, and i've loved bloody mary ever since.
there's nothing better than a bloody mary at around 11am on a sunday morning over eggs benedict for sunday brunch.
i'm making brunch plans for sunday now...
I've never really been big on bloody marys but that doesn't stop me from trying.
For example, I'll have to give #6 a shot because I love horseradish. And #4 is just funny. And so true!
Are you a 1:1 person or 2:1 when it comes to mixing a bloody mary?

Because it's a hangover cure?
