In a cocktail shaker (or mixing glass) add vodka, tomato juice, fresh lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, prepared horseradish, celery salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Fill shaker with ice and stir gently for 10–15 seconds to chill and slightly dilute. Do not overly aerate.

Assemble

Discard ice from the chilled serving glass if desired and fill with fresh ice. Strain the mixed Bloody Mary into the prepared glass.

Garnish & serve

Garnish with a celery stalk and a lemon wedge. Offer extra hot sauce, celery salt, or horseradish at the table. Serve immediately.

Screwdriver (single serving)

Prepare glass

Fill a highball glass with ice.

Combine

Pour vodka over the ice, then top with fresh orange juice. Gently stir once or twice to integrate.

Garnish & serve

Garnish with an orange slice on the rim and serve immediately.

Mimosa (single serving)

Chill ingredients

Make sure the sparkling wine and orange juice are well chilled (about 40–45°F / 4–7°C).

Build

Pour the orange juice into a chilled champagne flute. Gently top with the sparkling wine to preserve bubbles. Pour slowly so the flute does not overflow.

Garnish & serve

Add an orange twist or slice to the rim and serve immediately. If preferred, flip the proportions (equal parts) for a fruitier mimosa.
