Notes
Like it a little spicier? Up the black pepper or tabasco.
Looking for something a little milder, omit the horseradish or add more lemon juice.
Use Absolut Peppar for an extra little kick, otherwise use your favorite type of vodka
The garnishes make this drink, so don't forget them! We love to use olives, shrimp and cheese.
Don't forget the chaser! In the Midwest, you will always get a little beer chaser called a beer back with your Bloody Mary. This little 3-ounce beer is a perfect companion to your brunch cocktail. Try it-you will love it!
