As a little girl, I remember us visiting this family friend, think fabulous with a capital F, and I can remember walking into her house and seeing these tall strange looking drinks standing on the marble countertops, at first I thought, who drinks soup in a glass? Fast forward a few years and I now know what these were, a delicious Bloody Mary and she, this capital letter F aunt, flaunted them like an extra fabulous accessory.
The ingredients for a Bloody Mary is simple and easy to come by, Vodka, Lemon Juice, Tomato Juice, Pepper, Salt, Tobasco (optional) and Worcester sauce, but the key to creating an exceptional drink is using high-quality ingredients and not just any that are available to you. Think, a top-quality one-of-a-kind tomato vodka processed with solar energy, tomatoes fresh from the farm next door and a proud Worcester sauce locally sourced and put together by 1st Principles, and there you have it, the “mother of all Bloody Marys”.
