Virgin Mary Base

Method

Virgin Mary Base

  1. 1

    Mix the base

    In a mixing glass or small pitcher, pour 10 oz organic tomato juice. Add 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice, 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tsp prepared horseradish, 1 tsp LPM spiced mix, and 3 dashes hot sauce.

  2. 2

    Season and balance

    Add a pinch of fine sea salt and about 6 grinds of freshly ground black pepper. Stir the mixture vigorously for 20–30 seconds until evenly combined and slightly frothy. Taste and adjust: add another 1/4 tsp lemon juice if too sweet, another dash of hot sauce for heat, or more LPM spiced mix for aromatics.

Garnish & Serve

  1. 3

    Prepare glass

    If using a rim, moisten the glass rim with a cut wedge of lemon or a little tomato juice, then dip into coarse celery-salt or smoked salt to coat. Fill the glass with 1 cup of ice (or to desired level).

  2. 4

    Assemble

    Pour the seasoned tomato mixture over the ice in the prepared glass, using a bar spoon to gently stir once to chill and marry flavors (about 5–8 seconds).

  3. 5

    Garnish

    Place one trimmed celery stalk into the glass (optional) and top with a fresh celery leaf sprig on the rim or floating on top for aroma and presentation. Serve immediately.
