I love Bloody Marys - anytime of the day. It’s not just for breakfast anymore. I travel quite a bit and make a point of trying the Bloody Mary in each place I visit. Here are the categories for my pseudo-scientific, semi-subjective rating system, 10 being the best. Do you have a favorite Bloody Mary recipe to share? email it to me and I'll post it here!:

Decent flavor and a peppered rim, but not really done up right. Could have used a bit more salad bar and umph, especially since this was on their special drink menu.
Food was good and the hamachi Kama very tasty!

Bloody Ceaser
Another yummy treat :-) big ole chunks of horseradish, a pickled bean and various spices. It had a sweet spicy flavor that was delicious with the salted rim. The dining area at this boutique hotel overlooks the water. Wonderful and great food too

A bloody ceaser that was reeeeeefreshing! Terry aplogized for the lack of celery, but it was more than tasty and much appreciated. The salted rim added that special touch :-)
It ain't pretty, but it was good!

Irish Times has 3 options. This one has pickle juice in it. I was hesitant, but oh boy! This is one of my favorites! Light, refreshing and flavorful!

Tv Paragon is a hip little lounge and reataurant in the lobby of the beautiful Claremont hotel in Berkeley, CA. We held our photo workshop in the hotel and had a great dinner here with friends. The food was excellent! The calamari app was very tasty and I had a fresh salmon entrée that reallly rocked.
The BM was good, if you like horseradish I don't really care for it when it's too obvious in the flavor, and while this one was not obnoxiously seasoned, it was a bit much for my tastes. I still drank it all, so it couldn't have been too bad :-)
