5 Crazy New Bloody Marys to Try Right Now

Introduction
There are many variations on the typical Bloody
Mary. Some Bloody aficionados prefer to stay
loyal to the traditional Bloody Mary with
traditional garnishes, like celery, olives, or
pickles. You can change up the garnishes, the
alcohol, the spiciness, and nearly every other
ingredient in the drink. Ive often asked the
question, What is a bloody mary? To which Ive
received nearly every answer under the sun. Does
it have to be red, made with tomatoes, served
with vodka? Or is it something a bit more
nebulous? Is a dirty martini garnished with a
tomato a bloody mary? I clearly ponder the realm
of bloody marys way too much. But regardless of
your definition, we love the Bloody Mary for so
many reasons. The excuse to have a drink or two
before noon. The gorgeous red (or green or orange
or even purple) color. The chance to rehash the
night before with a few friends over brunch. We
may be biased, but the Mimosa obviously has
nothing on the Bloody Mary.

Green Mary
By most definitions, a traditional Bloody Mary is
a drink that contains vodka and tomato juice.
This iteration of a Bloody Mary is called a Green
Mary and uses tomatillos instead of tomatoes.
Keep in mind that these tomatillos add a more
tart, vegetal flavor than the traditional tomato,
and although tomatillos may look like green
tomatoes, they are not tomatoes at all. Theyre
excellent accompaniments to richer brunch foods,
where you might want something that will cut
through heavier foods

Asian-Inspired Bloody Mary
Who doesnt love sriracha? This hot, flavorful
condiment has inspired a legion of followers so
it makes sense wed want to put it in one of our
favorite breakfast drinks. This type of Bloody
Mary is made with Siracha and wasabi for a
spicier flair to this staple of breakfast drinks.
sriracha is an excellent substitute for Tabasco
sauce. Clamato juice works well in place of
tomato juice for this one to give it a little
more flavor. This would be a great drink to pair
with an Asian-inspired early lunch or to serve at
a party when you want to change up the menu a bit.

Mezcal Mary
This wonderful drink is made from mezcal and
garnished Chinese long beans, cherry tomatoes,
and olives. Mezcal, in case you arent familiar
with the drink, is made from the pina, or center
of the agave plant, which is cooked in a smoky
underground pit. It has been made this way for
hundreds of years. A Mezcal Mary is a more
potent Mary, one thats great for catching up
with friends and family over a plate of huevos
rancheros. You can also add garnishes like bacon
that will complement its smoky flavor.

Weirdly Garnished Bloody Mary
Its a kind of signature that the bartender puts
on this cocktail. Pickled items are key but
people have gone as far as placing an entire
fried chicken, bacon cheeseburger, or crawdad
sampler on top. Other whacko toppings include
slices of pizza, Chex mix, fried eggs, muffins,
ribs, candied peanuts, hot dogs, smoked fish, and
packs of Skittles. Whatever the topping, we
appreciate the chance to have a bite-sized piece
of food to accompany our drink. Bloody Marys are
a celebration, and the hors d'oeuvres on top are
a part of the festivities.

Meat Shot Glass Bloody Mary
One of the wildest Bloody Marys weve found is
the Meat Shot Glass Bloody Mary. It comes inyou
guessed ita meat shot glass. Why? The question
we think you should be asking, the question
behind the most amazing cocktail creations is,
why not? If you're looking for something out of
the ordinary to share with your guests, then this
might be the drink for you.
