Having Overnight Guests? Bloody Mary Mix Recipe Will Save The Day!
A Real Restaurant Drink Recipe


This Bloody Mary Mix is the best I have used at my restaurant and at home. I've tried many
others, of course, but hundreds of regular restaurant guests have approved of this merry mix
(sorry) above all others. It is a favorite restaurant drink recipe.


Let me tell you that on Sunday mornings (before and after church), I sell more Bloody Mary's
than most people would believe. And I sell them throughout the rest of the day, as well.


Sunday mornings are very busy at my restaurant. I believe most viable restaurants are the same.
Many years ago, my bartenders and I decided we could give better (and quicker) service if we
made "batches" of Bloody Marys ahead of customer arrivals. This Bloody Mary mix recipe
worked perfectly.


I also use this recipe in my own home whenever I have relatives and far-away friends visit for a
few days. They really like waking up to a great tasting Bloody Mary. But they still want a full
breakfast as well. :-0


So here you go! Enjoy your Bloody Mary Mix Recipe. It is a favorite restaurant drink recipe.
