I love the outdoors! I love outdoor activities! But sometimes, I just want to relax and appreciate the outdoors and chill. A picnic is a perfect way to get outside, soak up some rays, and just relax. Not to mention, they can be pretty romantic too! The Cozy Outdoor Picnic Bloody Mary Recipe was inspired by my love for the outdoors and easy living on those slower-paced weekends.
Take a pre-made bloody mary mix on a picnic
Whether you are using a bottled bloody mary mix or your own recipe, I highly recommend having the bloody mary mix pre-made and prechilled before you go on your picnic. You don’t want to be outdoors on the ground trying to be a master mixologist and this also limits the number of things you need to pack in your basket. The same goes for ice, if it’s prechilled and you have an ice pack in your cooler or basket, then there’s no need to try and find a way to pack ice cubes.
Quality bloody mary mix
For the Cozy Picini Bloody Mary Recipe, I used one of my personal favorite mixes, Sportsman’s Redneck Juice Clam Diggers. The hearty and rich mix is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner picnic and is garnished with charcuterie that would be found in any picnic basket. Why go with chocolate-covered strawberries and champagne, when you can go with bloody marys and meat and cheese!??
Sportsman’s Redneck Juice came about when owner Ed and his wife purchased Sportsman’s Bar and Grill in Wisconsin! With patrons traveling up to 50 miles to taste their famous bloody marys and selling their mix in tubs from the sour cream the restaurant used, they knew they had something special.
Sportman’’s Clam Diggers mix is one of my favorites and is great for any occasion such as picnics, sailing, ice fishing, hunting, or barbecuing! Because of the hearty and bold flavor, you really don’t need to add anything to it, which lends to the ease of taking it to the outdoors with you! I’ve also created a recipe using their spicy and original mix, perfect for grilling, camping, and BBQs! You can check that out here.
Prep your garnish skewers ahead of time
In addition to pre-chilling the bloody mary mix, you’ll also want to make your garnish skewers ahead of time. This makes for easy placement on top of your perfect picnic bloody mary and you’re not having to bring all the ingredient jars with you or the knives and cutting boards needed to cut meats and cheeses. That means more time enjoying your date and surroundings!
