No matter what the season, Bloody Mary is one of America’s top three favorite cocktails. Photography© Letizia Spanò | Fotolia. |
| WHAT IT IS: Bloody Mary seasonings. |
| WHY IT’S DIFFERENT: A specialist in the Bloody Mary mix, this company makes it in three ways: Classic, Extra Horseradish and Chilies & Peppers. |
WHY WE LOVE IT: When we don’t have time to make our own mix, it’s a great substitute—just add tomato juice. While “our own” benefits from lots of fresh-squeezed lemon or lime juice, this is a pretty satisfying substitute. |

 Demitri’s Bloody Mary Recipe
Here’s how Demitri likes his Bloody Mary:
Ingredients For One Bloody Mary
- 1-2 teaspoons of Demitri’s All Natural Bloody Mary
Seasoning
- 6-8 ounces tomato, vegetable or clam juice
- 1-2 ounces quality vodka (or gin or tequila, for a
Bloody Maria)
- Ice
- Kosher salt
- Large lime wedge
- Garnish (see below)
Photo shows Morton’s Seasoned Salt.
Preparation
 Gently moisten the rim of a 12-16 ounce glass with the lime wedge, then press into a saucer of seasoned salt or Bloody Mary glass rimmer. - Combine Demitri’s Bloody Mary Seasoning with tomato juice, vodka and ice in a shaker and shake.
- Pour the mixture into a highball glass and garnish. Squeeze the lime wedge onto the top of the drink and serve.

Garnishing Your Bloody Mary
There’s no need to choose just one garnish: It’s more exciting visually (and far tastier) to have a glassful, as you can see in the photo above.

- Instead of salt and pepper
