How to cook cocktail "Bloody Mary"

To deal with a hangover everyone prefers his own way. For those who like to knock out a wedge a wedge, have a cocktail "Bloody Mary". It was invented in the early last century. Of course, during the existence of a prescription has acquired a lot of variations. One of them we intend to test in this material.

One of the features of the classic cocktail - kaomka of celery salt on the edges of the glass. At home, prepare a salt is difficult, but you can experiment by mixing salt with dried chili flakes and garlic, as we decided to do.

Walking along the edges of glass with a slice of lemon, dip them in salt.

The composition of the cocktail, we have modified the minimum. Mix vodka (if you cook the Virgin Mary, then exclude it from the recipe), Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce (in the classical version - Tabasco), pour all the tomato juice and add the paprika (ideally - smoked, her giddy flavor). Stir.

Alcoholic basis can be changed to your liking, there are now variations of rum, tequila and gin, and therefore convenient to trot out the remnants of alcohol after the holiday.

If you have a juicer, it is possible to add tomato juice celery juice, garlic and horseradish.

Glasses fill with ice and pour cocktail.

As for the drink decorations, there is also the matter has reached the point of absurdity. Contemporary "Mary" served with bacon, slices of toast with cheese, grilled vegetables, turning into a full dinner cocktail. We decided to stay true to the classics, adding the drink celery, lemon and olives with capers on skewers.

A pair of portions, and with post-holiday buzz in the head will be to say goodbye.
