Bloody Marys are Great Party Drinks

This is a great drink to make the night before. Just make a big batch following the recipe using parts, store it in the fridge, and add some freshly chopped celery sticks or other preferred garnishes right before serving!  You could also use a Bloody Mary Mix, but it’s the same.

Another fun way to serve them is to let guests make them on their own, just put out the ingredients and print out the recipe. This way your guests can use things like lime juice, hot sauce, black pepper, salt and lemon wedges to make the drink just right for themselves.

Last of all, the fun part! While most people would serve their Bloody Marys with the classic lemon wedge and celery stalks, others have started getting more creative with their garnishes putting bacon, oysters, green olives, pickles, lime wedges, horseradish and even fried chicken or entire pancakes into their Bloody Marys! When planning the garnish station creativity is the limit!
