Bloody Mary
Morning After Hangover Cure


Preparation Time: 2 Minutes

Serves: 1 Person


Ingredients:

Å“ -1 Cup Tadich Grill Bloody Mary Mix
1-2 Shots Vodka (PRN)
Wedge of Lime
Dash Louisiana Crystal Hot Sauce
Dash Worcestershire Sauce
Dash Angostura Bitters
Dusting of Celery Salt
Cracked Black Pepper

Celery Stalk to Garnish

Ice Cubes

Optional:

Beef broth (for a Bullshot)
Mott’s Clamato ™ juice (for a Bloody Caesar)
Mott’s Beefamato™ juice
Del Monte Snap-E-Tom™ Tomato and Chile cocktail


Preparation:

Fill glass with ice. Squeeze lime wedge over rocks. Add Crystal hot sauce, Angostura bitters and Worcestershire sauce. Dust with celery salt and cracked black pepper. Pour in vodka and top off with Tadich Grill Bloody Mary mixer. Stir well and serve immediately.

Repeat as needed.

Notes: Painstaking and exhausting investigative research has revealed that the addition of Angostura bitters is the secret for the best possible flavor. It adds a missing vegetable note and creates an appealing counterpoint to the sweet tomato background.

#5  Cafe Diablo

This showy drink combines spiced brandy, Grand Marnier, and a strong African roast such as Kenyan or Sumatran.

Mason's Restaurant used to create this popular drink tableside, using a saucepan and igniting the brandy before ladling the potent drink into a demitasse cup. It is no longer available at the restaurant (for the obvious fire-hazard reasons), but can certainly be recreated in your own home for special guests. The proportions have been changed to accommodate a coffee mug.

1 12-ounce coffee mug, preheated
2 cubes sugar
1 1/2 jiggers brandy
1/2 jigger Grand Marnier
5-8 whole cloves
1 strip orange peel
1 strip lemon peel
8 ounces Kenyan or Sumatran brewed coffee

Gently heat all of the ingredients except the coffee in a chafing dish or, if one is not available, a saucepan. Pour the hot coffee into coffee mug. The brandy should begin to release its aroma after a few minutes. At this point, ignite the brandy and allow the flames to burn for 15-20 seconds, and then ladle the brandy mixture over the hot coffee. Mix the coffee and brandy together.

Serves one.
