Best of the Best: Bloody Marys

Hey, hey, today’s Friday, nearly the weekend… and my birthday! Since bloody’s are one of my favorite cocktails — I mean, it’s usually served with an eggs Benedict, is presumably healthy, nearly a meal, and can often be found bottomless — so hello, there.. pour this girl another. 😉

In recent years the popular boozy brunch cocktail has been mega elevated — from celery and olives — to an arsenal of crazy toppings from shrimp to mini burgers and even grilled cheese (my favorite). Check out a few of the best Bloody Mary recipes from around the web, and get planning. Bloody Mary bars also make a fab addition to any casual at-home brunch party (I’m clearly summer pool party planning). And, if you have a favorite recipe not seeing here, definitely leave it below and consider it a birthday gift to this girl!
