The ultimate hangover cocktail, a good Bloody Mary makes everything better. This smoky version uses barbecue sauce and chipotle en adobo to give it a nice edge. If you are having a hard time finding chipotle en adobo, be creative and add in another smoked pepper or look for smoky barbecue sauce.
What to buy: Chipotles are dried, smoked jalapeño peppers. We called for the canned variety, chipotle en adobo, packed in a spicy sauce. Look for them in the Latin section of your supermarket.

Could use the chipotle version of Tabasco it really is quite tasty. And I like the idea of the Bbq sauce especially since many of them have smoke flavoring in them.
