bloody mary
One of my favourite tipples is a bloody mary - not just good for hangovers, but a great all-rounder, I’m personally partial to one as a pre-dinner drink.
I recently realised that from when I started making them a few years ago with a full range of ingredients I’d some how worked my way down to just tomato juice, vodka and ice so I set about reinventing my recipe, this is the result.
The Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco are must haves and I’m fond of the inclusion of dry sherry. Give it a go, see what you think and adapt.

Add to the ice, season with the celery salt and black pepper.
Stir again well and serve with a stick of celery if you fancy.
