Meet the Bloody Caesar, a super tasty cocktail hailing from Canada. This fun little drink sports a savory combo of Absolut Vodka, tangy Clamato (that’s tomato juice mixed with clam broth), a zip of hot sauce, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Topped off with a bright lemon wedge and crisp celery stick, it’s a delightful punch of flavor in a glass! Basically, it’s an umami explosion!
Step-by-step instructions:
- Start by filling a highball glass with ice cubes.
- Pour in Absolut Vodka, Clamato, Hot Sauce, and Worcestershire Sauce.
- Give everything a good stir up.
- Garnish your drink with a Celery Stick and a Lemon Wedge.
- Enjoy in good company!
While both are savory cocktails, the key difference lies in the tomato juice: a Bloody Caesar uses Clamato, which is a blend of tomato juice and clam broth, while a Bloody Mary sticks to straight-up tomato juice.
The Bloody Caesar was invented in 1969 by a restaurant manager in Calgary, Canada, who wanted to create a signature drink for his new Italian restaurant. He found inspiration in Italy’s classic dishes, known for mixing seafood (like clams) with tomato sauce, which led to the birth of this unique cocktail.
