Margarita Mary: Recipe made with Demitri's Bloody Mary Seasoning

One of my favorite things about living in southern California has been enjoying the Mexican influence in the drinks and cuisine. So, when I was out shopping and saw these awesome margarita glasses, and knew I had some Demitri's Bloody Mary Seasoning at home. At that moment, an idea was born; The Bloody Margarita!

Demitri’s Bloody Mary Seasoning already has an important Mexican flavor; chili pepper puree, so I knew I just needed to add a few other key spices and some hot sauce! The fire-roasted tomatoes that Demitri’s use in their seasoning blends perfectly with this recipe for a delicious and smoky flavor. It's made from ingredients I usually have at home, so the recipe was quick and easy!

Can I use other spirits than vodka in this recipe?

Yes, absolutely! For this recipe, you can use either vodka or tequila (recommend mezcal). For me, I use vodka because it takes only, “one tequila, floor” instead of four!
