Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Vodka You can also use whiskey or tequila
  • 1/2 cup Spicy Tomato Juice or Bloody Mary Mix My favorite is Knudson Organic Very Veggie Spicy
  • 1 whole Lemon Save some for garnish, juice the rest
  • 1-2 teaspoons Horseradish Freshly grated, or prepared. Do this to taste; could be more or less depending on your preferences
  • 3-4 dashes Hot Sauce Tabasco is king for this-just ask my dad
  • 5-10 dashes Worcestershire Sauce ...Again to taste
  • Ice Enough to fill the glass nearly to the top.
A sprinkle of each of these to taste:
  • Celery Seed
  • Old Bay Seasoning
  • Black Pepper
  • Coarse Salt
Garnishes
  • 1 stalk of Celery
  • 1 wedge of Lemon
  • 2-4 Olives
  • 1-2 spears of Pickled Asparagus or Pickles
  • 1 slice of Cucumber
  • Anything else you might find delicious!

Method
 

  1. Slice a wedge of lemon and swirl it around the top of your glass to make the top of your glass wet.
  2. Mix salt, Old Bay, celery seed, and pepper on a saucer. Dip the rim of the glass in the mixture to coat the top.
  3. Juice the rest of the lemon into the glass; save the wedge for garnish.
  4. Sprinkle a little of the spice mixture into the bottom of the cup and combine with the lemon juice.
  5. Add the Tabasco, Worcestershire, and Horseradish. Stir again.
  6. Add vodka and tomato juice.
  7. Fill to almost the top of the glass with crushed ice, being sure to leave room for garnishes.
  8. Garnish with whatever your heart desires! My favorites are pickled anything, lemon wedge, and olives.
  9. Enjoy!

Notes

A Note About Garnishes
I live near Portland and it was a huge craze to add all kinds of things to your Mary’s. Like bacon, and cheeseburgers, and breakfast sandwiches. I’m not sure if that’s a vibe where you live, but feel free to add whatever you want. I usually stick with veggies.
