Hard to say goodbye to this back yard! |
EASY, BREEZY BLOODY
MARY
4 parts of your favorite bloody Mary mix
1 part of your favorite vodka
Celery
Sadly, I had to say goodbye to the beach house at Ocean
Isle, North Carolina, today and get back to reality where work awaits. The blow
was softened by an easy, breezy BLOODY MARY that I sipped as I packed this
morning. Since time was tight, I used a mix. It was called Authentic Bloody
Mary Mix, and while I don’t know about all that, it did make a pretty damn good
cocktail. I just mixed it with vodka and ice, gave it a stir and added some
celery stalks to keep up the authenticity. I’ve always loved a BLOODY MARY in
the morning, and while a homemade version with real tomato juice, Worchester
sauce, etc. would be better, this one worked in a pinch. It was thick and had
just the right amount of spice, without too much pepper. But, like my vacation,
its time is fleeting. A homemade, classic BLOODY MARY is coming up on the
cocktail calendar very soon and I can’t wait.
Drink Up^
