SPECS:
60ml (2oz) vodka
Large pinch celery salt
Large pinch black pepper
6 dashes Tabasco (to taste)
20ml (2/3oz) Worcester sauce (to taste)
15ml (2/3oz) lemon juice
90ml (3oz) tomato juice
Herbs/celery to garnish
Sherry float
EQUIPMENT:
A jigger
Shaker tins
A julep strainer
A highball glass
METHOD:
Add all of the ingredients except the sherry to your shaker tin and fill with ice.
Use your julep strainer to hold your ice back in the tin, and pour the cocktail in to your other, empty shaker tin.
Do this back and forth about 5 times until it is diluted and aerated.
OR seal your tins as usual but gently ‘roll’ your tins around about 10 times instead of shaking. Strain over fresh ice and float the sherry on top by pouring it in slowly.
Garnish with herbs or celery (or whatever you like really!) and enjoy!

For the last couple years I have been teaching myself to be a home bartender. I really stepped it up during the pandemic and was furiously watching tons of RUclips channels on how to make different cocktails. Now I find myself addicted only to your channel. Of all the cocktails I've tried from RUclips I find yours are consistently the best I can make. The attention to detail combined with fresh local ingredients just really puts you over the top.
Cheers!
Yes! This is my favorite cocktail channel, it's great, very informative

Aw you guys 🥰 so glad you’re finding it useful!
best garnish is a half a fresh lobster tail and jumbo shrimp
I go with a cheeseburger on a stick, myself.
Good lord, if someone made me a Bloody Mary garnished with a lobster tail I might actually try one for the first time 😉
@6:00 "It feels like it's replenishing you like everything that you lost the night before."
If only it can replenish my dignity and self-respect, Cara, if only.
As always, great vid
😂
In most US Northeast bars they add horseradish to the recipe. Maybe it’s just a regional variation. Try it, it’s really good (& dial back the Tabasco a bit). The best garnish for me is to keep it simple with celery, olive, and maybe one of those picked Italian peppers. I was at a seafood restaurant once that used a really huge shrimp as a garnish, which was fantastic but too much work for me at home.
It’s definitely a great addition if you have some lying around!
Admittedly, I'm one of those people to whom you referred- who can drink loads of them, haha ^_^"
Best Bloody Mary I've had was at a place called "The Breakfast Club" in Lake Placid, NY.
Thanks for this guide!
I love using Dimitri's Bloody Mary mix if you can get your hands on it. Highly recommend.
@@HeyBartender oh nice! thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out!
Haha fair enough pal!
I always make this drink in batches for guests and I’ve found that making the mix (except the vodka) the night before and letting it sit overnight in the refrigerator really allows the flavors to come together.
Definitely a good one to batch up in advance!
The Canadian one would be a Caesar invented by Walter Chell in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1969 by adding clam juice to regular tomato juice. National Canadian drink! Great idea with the sherry. I will need to try this.
Not very popular outside of Canada and the sales of Clamato (a brand of clam juice mixed with tomato juice) is virtually non-existant outside of the country! It's basically a deconstructed shrimp cocktail and it's freaking delicious!
Don't mind me, just leaving a comment to support the channel.
Thanks for the vid!
🙏
@@BehindtheBar I've been experimenting with bloody marys for years, and have a variation I like to call a saint george, where you make a very hot spicy & tangy bloody mary (however you prefer) & then to finish it forcefully add a splash of full cream milk so it penetrates the length of the glass for a distinct red & white colour set (hence the saint george title) the milk 'curdles' and gives it cheesey initial taste, that fades into the hot spicy tang.
Definitely worth making your own tomato juice for this. More labor intensive but about 5 times tastier than the premade stuff I could find
That would be next level for sure!
Having been a gin martini drinker for too long, I have always asked for my second most favorite drink to be made with that spirit. I recall one British Airline flight from San Francisco to London when I asked the steward for a Bloody Mary made with gin. His response was "Of course, it's only you Yanks who stated with the vodka!" My normal on hand spirit is Beefeater's but one of the more herbal gins like Tanqueray is a great option with whatever your local spot offers. On the way to Tahoe, Awful Annie's sells their Baker Brothers Secret Sauce. I fortunately live close by to pick up a bottle as needed. I think the main attraction of this ever evolving miracle is how it bends to the local bartender's taste.
This looks so good ! One of my favorite cocktails :)
I love how much you love your job! Another favourite of mine- made me thirsty. Keep up the good work!
A good Bloody Mary always hits the spot. The Sherry float is a nice touch, I will try that. Thank you!
In the States, you will sometimes find Clamato juice instead of the straight tomato juice. For the lazy, Spicy V8 juice.
I use spicy V8 as my base, with the 6 splashes of tobasco to really give it a zing. The V8 does add some extra flavors to the profile though, so it's not always about being lazy :) Also, since V8 is already salty enough already, I use celery seed instead of celery salt for that particular flavor note.
This is my very fav hangover med!
You do these so well. I've really learned a lot from your stylish efforts.
Thanks Tim!
I like to put mine in a V8 bottle for my trip to the golf course lol! Another excellent mixer with a twist on an American classic.
Love it!!
Drink in moderation, you may have to drive the golf cart
in Wisconsin these are not uncommonly garnished with half a meal of american food, right down to cheeseburgers and deep fried cheese
Citizen Crom Can confirm
Yessir, I’ve seen cheese curds, onion rings, sliders, mini-grilled cheese, potato skins, and French fries. Wi for the win!
Gotta love it Wisconsin style! "Drag mine through the garden, bring home the bacon, and top 'er with the cheddar!"
God bless Wisconsin! 😳
I watched a video on this actually, so full on! Definitely worth a research trip at some point haha 😋
I was going to make one for the first time today. Perfect timing. Thank you!
Hope you enjoyed!
Very clean construction and well done ! Once again you nailed it !
Thanks William!
I will echo the comments on the Bloody Caesar (Clamato juice). I add onion powder, garlic powder, Old Bay, white pepper, Worcestershire, A-1 steak sauce, Tabasco, lemon juice, celery salt and horseradish. It’s pretty amazing.
A-1 in your Caesar? I'm going to have to try that.
I been sleeping right through this quarantine to miss this channel. It's amazing. I'm binge watching all the videos. Love the intro the info the preps. Subscribed fo sure. Good onya mates
Thanks pal, so glad you’re enjoying!
I never really thought much about cocktails before, even when watching videos by How to Drink etc (not to say I wouldn't like them, I do!), but you make them so insightful and interesting, I actually want to try some proper, well-made cocktails some time.
Really love the background stories and explanations of how each cocktail is made and why!
That’s so nice to hear, I’m glad you’re enjoying!
Great video! Might be the perfect breakfast drink, after drinking all that rum, floating sherry on top, call it the Cara improvement, and those busy nights, use the glass to help cool off, that's so, uh, cool, loved it!!!
Loved this video. I've been doing these pretty close to your recipe except I use a thick slice of bacon. Really like the celery salt idea and would like more on what the manzanilla adds... You just cranked out a ton of content. They just keep getting better! Am gobbling it up. Keep it comin'!
Awesome as always Cara. I love this version and definitely have to try the potato vodka next time. My favourite version of the bloody mary is the one from the Gazebo Bar in New Orleans. About the only difference would be the addition of a heaped teaspoon of horseradish and a garnish of either pickled okra or pickled green bean. I spent a good deal of my time nursing a hangover on the banks of the mississippi river while drinking a couple of those!
you either love it or hate it, there is no middle point with the bloody Mary! cheers, loved the video
I never ask for these but if someone makes it for me ill drink it. I dont love it or hate it. I think they are ok.
Beautiful presentation and great job!
I would love so much to like a Bloody Mary but it's definitely not my drink despite having tried many. That sherry float may be a game changer though!
You are the only one spicing it up. Cheers.
So now I know....Many thanks. Will try this.
Hellfire in the morning .. sounds appropriate! 😄 Interesting with Sherrt floater at the end! I use Clamato in my bloody and lots of different garnishes.
Thanks for the history lesson and your recipe. Cheers!
You’re welcome!
2:48 made me lol over and over hahaha. Also, love a Bloody Mary, will definitely be trying this recipe, it looks great!
I'm not a bartender, but I love these videos. The next time I'm at my favorite pub, after a fun night, I'll have to ask them to make my Bloody Mary like this.
Im sure they'll be thrilled.
God bless this channel 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Mighty good drink.👍🏼👍🏼
👍🏻😍 Perfect!
Love this spec. Never tried it with the sherry float. The ONLY way I'll have tomato juice.
Just discovered this channel. Love the video on whiskey! You guys should do one on the different types of scotch from each region.
Definitely on the cards!
I'd love to have one of those now!
Me too to be honest haha
The dry sherry and lemon juice are absolutely essential, and totally agree about the "Worcestershire heavy"! When ordering a BM, I always ask "as hot as you dare!"
I used to give a dinner party on New Year's Eve and the guests would all stay over afterwards. I used to serve a New Year's Day brunch at about 11am and at the foot of the stairs in the hall, I would always have a drinks tray with all the ingredients for people to mix their own.
I like my Bloody Mary with Absolut Cilantro and add horseradish, Sriracha and a slice of crisp bacon for garnish. Sometimes I like to substitute a citrus vodka and a nice blanco tequila, one ounce each. After watching this I might try sherry someday, but celery salt for sure.
i tried this both with the sherry & without it, either way works for me
I like adding pickle juice to the mix as well. It really gives a "oh what's that?" taste to it, but in a good way. Goes well with the olive as well.
Great addition!
¡Fabuloso, apenas hice uno el fin de semana y la verdad que es un cóctel para., revivir o curarte la cruda!
I done a ton of research and trial and errors on Mary's.
Best result i got was using the right spirit.
For vodka infused is a clear winner here, lots of good version but a very good one, comes from a celery stalk, a good amount of spring onion and half a clove of garlic (very little or it will overpower) infused for 2 week. Best gin I tested is ophir spiced gin. Another really good choice is a good spicy smooth aquavit. Another great trick if you are not using fresh juice is muddle 4 really good cherry tomatos in there, it will give a good extra acid/sour kick and it becomes a bit more vibrant due to fresh ingredients. That is a few of my tips.
Love the cherry tomato idea!
I agree on the infused vodka part.. My choice here is gin.
@@meekerjs Yes i really do love red snapper. I found a Norwegian aquavit that just blows my mind when i make a bloody with it. Lysholm Thronhjems Aquavit
@@BehindtheBar You used a sherry float which I love, port float also works really well, especially with gin.
Noice, Like the use of the forehead clearing technique! I must say though I do like a great hunk of celery in my bloody mary - it's good having a raw vegi to nibble on - feels very theraputic!
That’s fair, it’s just the one vegetable I can’t get around. Maybe I should do a carrot...haha
@@BehindtheBar Promise me that NONE of your recipes involve either a courgette or a parsnip (definitely not a parsnip!)
Great video. Nothing worse than going to a bar, ordering a Bloody Mary, and having the bartender open up a fresh bottle of mix. Ugh. Usually when I make mine, I'm making them in a big stew pot for parties. I always do a 1 part Clamato to 2 parts tomato juice because I like the umami that the clam juice provides. A few years back I discovered that Montreal Steak Seasoning is a great spice blend and adds a little garlic to the mix. Oh, and I have to have several heaping spoonsful of prepared horseradish.
Truer words were never spoken! If you're at a bar that pulls out a store bought "mix", run fast and run far!
I have to try it with sherry cause I love it
Do it!
Bloody Mary = drink on a plane or drink for the morning after (which sometimes can be the same). I feel the spicier the better to cure the hangover... your rendition looks good, even if I would say more on the 'safe' side, crowd pleaser rather than making it more personal.
For sure, I think of this as a ‘base’ Bloody Mary to be adapted to each individual’s tastes 😊
I hope Josh gets to try the cocktails as well :-) *Great* video!
He is trying to move the whole operation to his house so he can drink all of them and not have to worry about driving home!! Thanks guys, hope you're doing well.
I've never had a Bloody Mary! The tomate sauce on a drink has always put me off... I'll have to try!
Like others before me, I am new to the mixing game and I really enjoy your channel. I just made this at home and tasted one for the first time ever. It was very interesting yet tasty. I made a fun pickled onion and pickle spear for my garnish, it looks great! The spiciness of the hot sauce, Worcestershire and tomato juice go very nicely together, for my taste. I can't even tell there is vodka in this. It tastes 'healthy' 🤨
Definitely healthy! Haha
I will have a Bloody Mary served by her anyway and any day. :-). Beautiful
I love this cocktail. Personally I like it with a thick tomato juice.
Bloody Mary ❤️👌
Yay! This was a video I requested :)
There will be more I promise!
I have also made it with Aquavit such as Linie
I prefer horseradish to the tobasco. The sherry float sounds interesting!
I second the horseradish!
@@irideaduck939 Thanks! I had a wicked hangover a while back and went out to lunch with a friend. We went to a local tavern that makes them that way and I had 3 of them. Ahh! right back where I was before bed! 🥤🥤🥤
Why not both?
I have yet to make one from scratch. Ive got a decent store mix i use with Titos. I like to rim the glass with Old Bay and put a good dash in the drink as well. Maybe add a piece of bacon or traditional celery.
Yum!
Great video. Specially because I LOVE Bloody Mary's !!!! However, I believe you forgot the Clam Juice!
Haha many angry Canadians on here!! It’s coming, I promise 😊
My next corruptive drink. You are a bad influence, thanks! :)
Me?! 😇
What a brilliant cocktail, must try this one asap!
By the way, it was seven dashes of Tabasco you did there :)
Haha Ok maybe I like it a little spicier...
I use bourbon instead of vodka in this. I find it balances the salty/vinegary flavour better with that smoky sweetness. A strip of bacon/rasher and a gherkin are a good garnish. I like some horseradish mixed in instead of hot sauce. No sherry. Very American and the flavour profile is unusual. It’s great at a bbq.
A great drink the next day after to much. Yes, only one. Have see a bit of horseradish added. Yes, I like it spicey. Lately the garnishes have gotten bigger.....candied bacon, shrimp, even a huge Buffalo wing
Spicy is gooood 🌶
I garnish mine with mini sliders shrimp and onion rings on skewers here in the states
I like my Bloody Mary with gin. Really, I think it's superior. Though I guess that really makes it a different drink. (the Red Snapper you mentioned) . Still, I think I need to get my hands on a small bottle of sherry. Now I know.
The only problem with red snapper (gin) is you really need to know your gins, picking the right one is the key. If you picking the wrong gin, you will ruin the drink. You especially need to stay away from heavy parfumed gins. I normally say the more spiced the gin is, the better a result you will get.
I've never tried the sherry, but I might have to now. I agree that celery isn't always the best, so I usually add just a bit of beef jerky, but that might be the American in me. I also prefer both chili sauce and a little bit of Sriracha over tobasco, and a bit of olive juice with the garnish is perfect.
😋
The channel is great. I am learning continuously. What do you think about adding and muddling tomatoes (of-course only in season) instead of tomato juice?
With the winter season arriving, I would be interested if you could suggest a few warm concoctions.
Of course, I’ll always advocate using seasonal fresh produce over bottled/canned where you can! Nothing beats fresh ripe tomatoes 🍅 we just try and keep the recipes accessible no matter where you are!
Oh, and to your second point - I am currently working on a Christmas cocktail script but it’s obviously a little different for us as Christmas is like 40 degrees haha, but I’ll definitely have at least one warm one on there- time is against us at the moment as we still can’t film due to lockdown, but fingers crossed we can get there soon 🤞
Here’s some other things to try: bourbon 🥃 instead of vodka. Gives it a smokey flavor. A1 steak sauce instead of Worcester. And finally, take a whole jar of pickles and dump the whole thing in the blender. Pour the resulting slush into an ice cube tray and make pickle ice cubes for the drink.
Whoa, mind blown with the pickle ice cubes haha!
@@BehindtheBar I have another innovation. Use vodka infused with black garlic. It also works great in a martini, but I like to put it over crushed ice with a little seltzer to cut back on the strength of the flavor.
Siracha sauce for those that enjoy it flavor is a nice kick
You think a burger for garnish is absurd, knew a place that put a whole fried game hen on top... and bacon of course
😂🤣
I wonder if some canned tomato juice is more acidic than others, and if this affects the perceived need for more sweetness?
Love your channel. The time you take to give a bit of history is excellent. You are also a nice eye candy!
Would love to share one of these with you
Yes with the Wooster sauce!
Hey! Tanks very match for the good content! What about gin instead vodka in bloody marry? Will it be good to?
We’ll definitely cover this soon- commonly known as a Red Snapper, it’s delicious!
@@BehindtheBar can’t wait!
recipe looks delish!
next try the Bloody Maria! tequila and tomato ;)
That’s honestly probably my favourite
Now that’s what I call a Bloody Mary.
Love a Bloody Mary, although I use a mix of tomato juice and v8 vegetable juice
My American in laws use v8 as well!
2:52 - "Woo-cest-shur-shire" :) :) :)
My favourite garnish is pickled asparagus.
Ahhh...I like them salty, spicy, and smoky
😋
Maybe sub in the Smoked Chipotle Tabasco for regular?
@@davidl5452 I've had that! It's very good in a Bloody Mary!
That's nice to know....now how do you like your Bloody Mary😋
Use Sriracha instead of Tabasco and add a splash of pepperoncini juice before mixing. You now have the best Bloody Mary.
You can substitute pickle brine for pepperoncini juice if -you're a weenie- you want it to be less tangy, but it won't taste as good.
That sounds awesome! Definitely trying that next time I make one!
I love Bloody Marys and that recipe looks like a good one . . . but it's too complicated for me. If that's how your bar does it, I'd love to come down and have someone make it for me, though.
My favorite Bloody Mary is with bacon infused bourbon. This one looks great...
You added Seven dash of Tabasco and told six lol😅❣️✌🏻
Good day to you.
Horseradish is a nice addition to a Bloody Mary.
Definitely!
subbed 😊👍
Thanks pal!
I think I could get through life with just Bloody Mary's, dry gin Martini's, Bourbon, and an occasional summertime beer.
Sounds like a meal in itself
I cannot stand vodka so I use white rum.
I prefer V8 juice instead of tomato juice.
For salty or savory, wet the rim of the glass and coat it with salt.
For sweet, wet the rim of the glass and coat it with sugar.
Instead of a stick of celery, try a spring onion with a savory Bloody Mary. Try a carrot stick with a sweet Bloody Mary.
Black pepper is okay, but cayenne will give more kick.
Drink it from a hurricane glass with less ice, more juice and spirits. Double the amount of liquor and juice.
Interesting, I’ve never tried it with rum or thought of making it sweet, but I guess with a sweeter base spirit that could be an interesting twist!
Whenever I see people shoving meat in a perfect vegetal cocktail it makes me utterly sad lol
Fun fact, I did a version of bloody mary with sake, orange tomatoe juice and Habanero pepper to celebrate Naruto's birthday just a couple days before this video. I'd do some bartending steps differently now hahaha
As always, thanks for sharing
Louder for the ones in the back of the class: STOP ruining bloody mary's with meat and stuff, please!
That Naruto version sounds like a fantastic idea tho... going to have to experiment!
That meat thing - a variation called a "Bullshot"? Maybe Cara can educate me again.
Super secret ingredients for award winning Bloody Marys: splashes of pickle juice and pepperocini juice.
😋
Michelada recipe please!!! Pretty please!!
Your wish is my command!

I’m more a fan of Red Snappers. Only when I’m hung over though hahah. I really have to get some Sherry
Red Snapper will definitely be in the full Bloody Mary episode!
This drink has become a popular Sunday brunch offering in many restaurants in Massachusetts and Connecticut. Not sure if that’s the case in other states and countries?
You do walk home, don't you?
@@jamesprice4647 I never drive drunk, if that's what you mean?
Definitely, most cafes here will do a great Bloody Mary!
@@BehindtheBar Someday, I need to visit Australia ... and Scotland!
I just love the way you say "tomato." Which begs the question: Why do you say to-MAH-to but also say po-TAY-to?
Haha I’m not sure to be honest!
I finish mine with sesame seed oil for a nutty finish.
Yum!
Omg now i want a bloody mary!!! My friend drinks this with tequila. He's hard core!!! 😆
Ah! the bloody maria! My brother-in-law had one every Christmas morning.
A Bloody Maria is definitely my favourite variation 😋
They're AMAZING!
Very good with the right gin, as well.
