Bugs Bloody
While the Bloody Mary is a brunch staple, the recipe (thankfully!) is completely open to interpretation.
Five unique Bloody Mary recipes will make a one-time-only appearance at Brunch-a-Palooza on June 3rd, 2017. Each will feature a local craft-distilled vodka, and a few will stretch beyond the typical tomato juice base.
The Bugs Bloody (as you may have guessed) uses earthy carrot and celery juice, in addition to a little tomato juice as a thickener. The recipe is simple, but the result is striking and is not at all what you've come to expect from a Bloody. Expect a fresh, garden-y taste without the acid tang that comes with tomato juice.
And, as always, feel free to experiment with your Bloody garnishes!
Recipe:
- 1 oz dill infused Tattersall vodka
- 2 oz carrot juice
- 1 oz tomato juice
- 1 oz celery juice
- 1/8 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp ground turmeric
- 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
Instructions:
Build this one in a Collins glass. Stir all ingredients together. Pour into the glass, over ice. Garnish with watermelon radish shaving.
