Bloody Mary Morning

Willie Nelson knows what he's talking about

Tomato juice and vodka is not a Bloody Mary. Certainly not. To enjoy this drink you will need a few more ingredients, and perhaps a little experience getting the proportions right. But I can promise you that gaining this experience will be pleasurable, as long as you don't do it every single morning.

Of course vodka and tomato juice are the two main ingredients of a Bloody Mary and your only liquid ingredients, unless you want to make a Caesar, which is how they drink Bloody Marys in the Great White North, Canada. Caesars use clamato juice, a mix of tomato and clam juice – why? I don't know. Do you?
