As part of their extensive Christmas gifting range, Bloom and Wild have launched a ‘Bloody Mary Box’, ideal for gifting your cocktail-loving friends or for someone hosting over the festive period. The set includes vodka, spiced salt, tomato juice, and delightfully tart cornichons as the perfect accompaniment.
Bloom & Wild Gifitng Expert, Jess, says her favourite cocktail is a Bloody Mary and used her knowledge to carefully curate the set. See to the right for Jess’ top tips on making the perfect Bloody Mary.
Making the perfect Bloody Mary and how to spice it up:
Wet the rim of the glass and dip in spiced salt - the salt in the box is a bold mix of smoked salt, celery, cayenne and lemon, enhancing the flavour with every sip.
Combine the tomato juice and vodka, plus any other ingredients you want to include. Our Bloody Mary box is perfect because our tomato juice is from The Pickle House who blend pickle juice and spices into the tomato mix for extra flavour. You could add worcestershire sauce and extra lemon juice if you prefer.
Pour into the glass and garnish with our deliciously salty cornichons, or alternatively serve with olives in a nice side dish.
If a hangover cure is what you need, skip the vodka and make a Virgin Mary to sip with bacon sandwich.
