Bloody Marias are in my opinion a million times better then a bloody mary. Tequila is just tastier with the spicyness and saltiness of the drink
Bloody Mary's are done right in New Orleans. They add just the right amount of brine, Worestershire sauce, and Tabasco. If you are ever in NOLA, go to Napoleon House. While you are there, get a Ramos Gin Fizz. Two words: real egg.
The best bloody mary I've ever had was at a Fox and Hound restaurant... ooo boy it was delicious!
I tried the Bloody Mary once because my friend said it's one of the greatest drink ever. I gave the drink a chance and it failed miserable. I hate it!
I think that if she's such a hot babe, she should be spicy, not warm. Does she have a fever? I know, I know, there are exceptions to every rule, but...
Right on, Cristina! You beat me to the correction refering to spiciness of the libation.
Great recipe! I would substitute Rick's Picks Mean Beans brine for the pickled jalapeno juice for a just as spicy yet more flavorful infusion of puckery heat!
I think you need to fix the title of this recipe (as it appears on the front page of the boards, not on the recipe page).
Caliente refers to temperature, hot or cold, in food or drink, it does not to spicyness . If you want to call a drink 'hot'--as in spicy--the Spanish word is picante. The Spanish language is quite picky about the equivalents of the English word 'hot'.
