The Bloody Mary made...Strong!

The Bloody Mary…….Made Strong!

The inspiration for this recipe comes from Elissa, one of the partners at Strong Sauce.  We challenged the team to think outside the box for a recipe we can use at an upcoming charitable golf event we are sponsoring and she suggested I try a bloody.  I wasn’t optimistic but it’s in my nature to take on any culinary challenge.  It took a few tweaks to dial it in, but once we did, we knew we had something special.

Ingredients:

• 1.5 ounces of your favorite vodka
• 1.5 ounces of Strong Sauce
• 3 ounces of a good quality tomato juice
• 2 teaspoons of fresh horseradish
• 3 dashes of Worcestershire sauce
• A pinch of celery salt
• 1 squeeze of a lemon slice
• 1 dash of original Tabasco sauce. Or as much as you want.

Method:

     Combine all ingredients in a martini shaker filled with ice.  Shake vigorously for 5 seconds and strain into a cocktail glass filled with ice.   Garnish with celery stalk, pepperoncini and a stuffed green olive.  Enjoy.
