Spice It Up: Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce to your liking. For extra heat, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few slices of fresh jalapeño to the shaker. Tomato Juice Quality: The quality of your tomato-vegetable juice greatly impacts the final taste. Opt for a premium brand for the best flavor. Vodka Choice: While vodka doesn't impart a strong flavor, using a smooth, high-quality vodka will elevate your Bloody Mary. Garnish Galore: Get creative with your garnishes! Consider adding a lemon or lime wedge, a pickle spear, a cocktail onion, or even a strip of crispy bacon. Make it a Batch: Easily scale up this recipe to make a batch for a crowd. Simply multiply the ingredients accordingly and mix in a large pitcher. Stir well before serving.
