Bloody Mary Cocktail Recipe – The Whisky Exchange HD

Bloody Mary – Spicy and uplifting. An ultimate brunch accompaniment, Bloody Mary recipes are made to be tampered with: crank up the spice, grate some ginger or pour in some honey as you like. History: The Bloody Mary is the most personal cocktail recipe out there, from additions such as ginger, honey, sherry, horseradish, smoked paprika and yellow bell peppers being used, to the level of spiciness and garnish choice; everyone has a preferred ratio and mix. The above is a classic, modern recipe intended to be used as a base. With a long and complex history, including gin variations there are many debates over who deserves credit for this restorative cocktail. We do know that a form of spiced tomato juice and vodka has been around since the 1920s and called a Bloody Mary since the 1940s. Perfect for long brunches and lazy Sundays, this cocktail is one of the few that works just as well in virgin form.
