Bloody Mary Gelatin Shots Recipes

BLOODY MARY RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the ice in a large jug. Measure the vodka, tomato juice and lemon juice and pour it straight onto the ice.
• Add 3 shakes of Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco (or more if you like it very spicy) and a pinch of celery salt and pepper. Stir until the outside of the jug feels cold, then strain the cocktail into 2 tall glasses.
• Top up with fresh ice, add a celery stick and lemon slice to both glasses and enjoy.

HALLOWEEN BLOODY MARY SHOOTERS

Steps:

• Bloody Mary Mix: Pulse celery in a food processor until finely chopped. Add 2 cups tomato juice and puree until smooth. Transfer to a pitcher and stir in remaining 4 cups tomato juice, lemon juice, horseradish, Worcestershire, celery salt, hot sauce, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 12 hours and up to 2 days.
• Shooters: Stir together equal parts salt and pepper on a small plate. Rub lemon wedge around the rims of two double shot (3-ounce) glasses. Dip rims into salt and pepper mixture.
• Pour 2 ounces Bloody Mary mix into bottom of each glass (reserve remaining Bloody Mary mix for another use). Holding a spoon upside down over the top of the glass, slowly pour 1 ounce vodka over spoon into each glass (vodka should sit on top of Bloody Mary mix and create a layer of black). Garnish with celery.

SPICED BLOODY MARY SHOTS

Steps:

• Dip the rims of six shot glasses in honey. Tip the za'atar out onto a plate then turn the rims of the glasses around in the za'atar to coat the very edges.
• Mix all of the other ingredients together in a jug including a couple of handfuls of ice. Stir until the outside of the jug feels cold. Remove the ice with a slotted spoon then carefully pour the mixture into the prepared glasses then spoon a few drops of chilli oil on top of each one. Serve with warm flatbread, olive oil, more za'atar, olives and pickled chillies if you like.

UNCLE MERLE'S BLOODY MARY

BLOODY MARY ASPIC

Steps:

• Cook shallots and celery in olive oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add puréed tomatoes, sugar, salt, pepper, and celery seeds and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 25 minutes. Pour tomato mixture through a sieve lined with dampened cheesecloth into a clean 3-quart saucepan, pressing hard on solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard solids. Bring tomato broth just to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in Worcestershire sauce.
• While tomato broth comes to a boil, stir together lemon juice and vodka in a small bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over vodka mixture. (Spoon vodka mixture over any powdered gelatin remaining on top.) Let stand until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Lightly oil a 1 1/2- to 2-quart nonreactive shallow baking pan (2 inches deep).
• Add gelatin mixture to hot tomato broth, stirring until gelatin is dissolved. Pour into baking pan and chill, uncovered, until firm, at least 6 hours.
• To unmold aspic, run a small sharp knife around edge, then dip baking pan into a larger pan of warm water, 15 to 20 seconds. Put a cutting board over baking pan, then carefully invert aspic onto board and cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
