Best / Favorite Bloody Mary Mix

The Winter Cocktail post got me to thinking about Bloody Mary’s. Curious of what all of your favorite mixes are. Our favorite use to be the Jero Jalapeno brand ( Yes I know cheap brand ) They discontinued it many years ago. I have tried lots of brands since and have not settled on one that I really like. Its a buddy hunting weekend this weekend and I know there will be lots of bloody Mary’s as well as other beverages drank and was looking for a different mix to try. I often mix up a batch of bloody Mary’s and drink them Virgin style ( No Vodka ) Sometimes I crave one but don’t feel like the Vodka in it.

i have a homemade reciepe from one of the bartenders from Winners bar and grill, but i’d need to look at the reciepe to post it.

My go to is good ol zing zang, but lately I’ve been getting spooky dill pickle. Also I’ve been using bourbon instead of vodka most bloodies already have a bunch of bold flavors in them so why use a tasteless spirit when you can add to the flavor profile.

Glenn – Is that the Winners bar in Sartell? I don’t live far from there. I have never stopped in there

I really like the Devil Dave’s mix. It is a powdered mix you add to your liquid. I do a 50/50 V8 and Clamato with a little pickle juice! Have also been adding bourbon in place of the vodka! If you have not tried it, you have to! Making me thirsty!!

-J.

I usually get Zing Zangs also. I will have to try mixing one with bourbon. Any particular bourbons that work well?

I like Buffalo Trace or Makers Mark in mine..

The base has to be Clamato or Im out.

Nan’s, hands-down the best. Regular or extra spicy.

well your in luck……reciepe i have is just so.

Ditto on the Zing Zang, V8 Spicy Hot, little green olive juice,

Red Eye, but zing zang comes in a close 2nd

I normally do a 50 50 mixture of Mix and Clamato. That is why I like the thicker mixes.

Surprised that so many like the Zing Zang – That is the one that most of my friends like the least.

I do a half and half mixture of Zing Zang and Bloody Mary Mix from Hell. Also need a splash of pickle juice.

I like Miss Marys mix and will also use Mr & Mrs Ts horseradish mix. Zing Zang will also work. Pickle juice is also added to mine.

Zing zang. Add some pickle juice, olive juice, dab of hot sauce, dab of Worcester, dab of celery salt, deer stick and call er good.

How many ounces is a can of clamato?

My usual go to is Major Peters (original or the works). If I can’t find that I’ll end up with a bottle of zang
