No that headline isn't a typo, there really is a drink called a Bloody Caesar. It's Canada's take on a Bloody Mary. I had the dubious pleasure of enjoying several while spending a day in Toronto last week. Look for more dispatches on my Canadian adventures in the near future.Before I had one of these, I never imagined that our friends to the north had their own mixed drink. Basically a Bloody Caesar is a Bloody Mary that uses Mott's Clamato juice. It seems like a small change but I find them more refreshing. Of course that bracing flavor could also be from the celery-salt around the rim of the glass. After some experimenting at home I find that I like mine with a little garlic pepper and a generous dose of Tabasco.
Bloody Caesar
- 1 ounce vodka
- 5 ounces Clamato juice
- 3 drops of Tabasco
- 2 drops of Worcestershire
- Salt and pepper
There are several variations on the Bloody Caesar, including the one that is said to come from Sault Ste. Marie. It's defiining characteristic is the use of a pickle spear as a garnish. Then there's the Russian Caesar. I'm of the opinion that this mutant variety, which consists of borscht, Clamato, vodka and dill was invented by the marketing mavens at Mott's.
