“Hot in……so hot in here!” It’s national hot chicken day ya’ll! Hot chicken or frequently known as Nashville Hot Chicken has its own holiday! Nashville hot chicken is HOT!!! Hot chicken is bursting with flavor and will make you sweat, literally! Whether you are enjoying hot chicken at a cookout, picnic, or for lunch, you’ll need to wash it down with a cold beverage.

For the Hot Chicken Bloody Mary Recipe, it’s a hot and spicy meal in a glass! Using my one of my fave southern style bloody mary mixes; Cocktail Artist Premium Bloody Mary Mix (available at Walmart) I wanted to give you that punch of heat that hot chicken lovers crave.

For the Hot Chicken Bloody Mary Recipe, I combined the Cocktail Artist Premium Bloody Mary Mix with the spices that traditionally go on the hot chicken sauce and cut it with some pickle juice, because hot chicken wouldn’t be complete without pickles! I used the same spices for the rim for a smoky, salty, spicy bloody mary that’ll have you salivating! Spoiler ALERT!! I ordered hot chicken out. You know your girl is hella busy and hot chicken is a process! Let’s just keep that between you and me! :)
