Beau Monde Bloody Mary Recipe

Cocktail

1. 1

   Prepare glass rim

   Run the lemon wedge around the rim of a highball or pint glass to moisten it. Spread the spiced sea salt on a small plate and dip the moistened rim into the salt, rotating to coat evenly. Set the glass aside.

2. 2

   Mix

   Fill a cocktail shaker (or mixing glass) with ice. Add Absolut Peppar Vodka (2 oz), Beau Monde Bloody Mix (4 oz), fresh lemon juice (0.5 oz), Worcestershire sauce (0.25 tsp), and 2 dashes of hot sauce. Add the freshly ground black pepper (about 1 tsp).

3. 3

   Stir, don't shake

   Stir the mixture briskly with a bar spoon for about 15–20 seconds to chill and slightly dilute the drink while keeping texture. If you prefer more aeration and froth, you may give a very gentle short shake, but classic Bloody Marys are stirred.

4. 4

   Assemble

   Fill the prepared glass with fresh ice (about 1 cup). Strain the mixed cocktail over the ice into the glass, leaving the salted rim intact.

5. 5

   Garnish and finish

   Garnish with the celery stalk and the reserved lemon wedge on the rim. Optionally add extra dashes of hot sauce or Worcestershire sauce to taste. Serve immediately.
