Servings:
5 cups
Ingredients
  • 5 medium-large tomatoes
  • 1 small onion or shallot
  • 1 small or ½ large beet
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 1 small red pepper
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
  • 1 medium cucumber
  • ½ cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons freshly grated horseradish
  • 1 tablespoon liquidy hot sauce
  • 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons celery salt
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • water
  • 6 ounces Homemade Spicy Bloody Mary Mix
  • 3 ounces vodka (bottom shelf is fine)
  • additional celery salt
  • lemon wedge
Directions
  1. Combine tomatoes, onion, beet, carrot, red pepper, jalapeño and honey in large pot and add ¼ cup water plus salt and pepper to taste. Cover the pot, set over high heat, and bring to a boil. Drop heat and allow vegetables to simmer, covered, until completely tender, about 40 minutes.
  2. Remove pot from heat, add all remaining ingredients, and stir to combine. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend on high until completely smooth. Check for seasoning, adding more salt or pepper as needed. If the mixture is too thick, add water and re-blend. (Do not thin mixture too much, as added vodka will also thin mixture.)
  3. Drink Bloody Mary mix as-is, use immediately in cocktails, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to two months.
  4. To create a salt rim, dip the mouth of a large tumbler into a plate of water, shake off excess, then dip in a plate of kosher salt, twisting the glass until the rim is coated (optional). Fill the tumbler with ice.
  5. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add Bloody Mary mix and vodka, as well as additional seasonings if desired. Shake vigorously, then strain into a tumbler. Garnish with lemon, cucumber, and parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
