3 Ways To Give Your Usual Bloody Mary A Much Needed Makeover
Tomatoes were my favourite fruit as a child. Yes, I said it. Not mangoes, not apples but tomatoes!
Have it in a salad, some tomato soup or even some roadside bhel puri! But as I grew up, I found out that you can even mix it with some vodka and turn it into a refreshing cocktail.
I love a good Bloody Mary from my head to-ma-toes (see what I did there?) so much that it became my instant favourite cocktail. I wouldn’t even have to scroll through the bar menu to know what to order.
And, if you really ask me what my food pairing with Bloody Mary is, it definitely would be grilled bacon or meatballs!
And, now that I found out that it’s International Bloody Mary Day on 1st January, I thought why just have a usual Bloody Mary when you can get creative? I mean, the usual one is good but mix with papaya puree or a dash of chilli and you have yourself a new fave!
Intrigued much? Well, I got in touch with the Brand Ambassadors at Diageo - Khushnaz Raghina and Asmani along with bartender Jack from Social, Bangalore and they came up with some exciting variations of Bloody Mary recipes!
So, keep scrolling and see just how to make ‘em!
