How To Dress The Rim Of A Bloody Mary Cocktail
For this recipe, we used Creole seasoning. We put water around the rim of the glass and then poured some Creole cajun on a plate. Then dipped the top of glass on the plate and rolled it around to coat the edge. You can use anything, we just loved the cajun spice.
V8 Juice As Base of Bloody Mary Drink
We used V8 in this recipe. You can use a regular v8, spicy v8, or even a plain tomato juice. We do recommend buying quality tomato juice since it will be one of the main flavors of this drink.
