A savoury, spicy tomato cocktail with gin, citrus and heat.
Want to know a secret? One of the best versions of a Bloody Mary is made with gin, and it is called a Red Snapper. The botanicals in the gin add extra lift, making the drink feel bright, savoury and refreshing.
Red Snapper
Gin, Worcestershire, hot sauce, spices, citrus and tomato juice.
Glassware
Collins glass.
Optional: celery salt rim.
Garnish
Celery stick.
Optional: lemon wedge with freshly cracked pepperer
Ingredients
45ml Gin 120ml Tomato Juice
Recipe
Prepare your glass and garnish first.
For a Celery Salt rim, moisten the outside edge of the glass with a lemon wedge, then gently roll that section through Celery Salt.
Add the gin, tomato juice and Bloody Mary Spice Mix to a shaker with ice.
Roll the drink between two shakers, or shake very gently, until chilled.
Strain into the prepared glass over fresh ice.
Garnish with a celery stick, or a lemon wedge with freshly cracked pepper.
Notes
Rolling the drink is gentler than a hard shake and helps avoid over-aerating the tomato juice.
A citrus-forward or savoury gin works especially well here.
