A great twist on a classic drink, this Inside Out Bloody Mary from 101 Martinis is a surefire way to unwind after a long workweek.
Ingredients: 3 to 4 spicy Mary cubes (see note)
2 ounces pepper or lemon vodka
Splash of lemon juice
Splash of Tabasco
Small celery stalk, for garnish
Speared red chile pepper, for garnish (optional)
Directions: Place the spicy Mary cubes in an empty martini glass. Combine the vodka, lemon juice, and Tabasco in a cocktail shaker filled with ice, shake vigorously, and strain over the Mary cubes. Garnish with a small celery stalk and a chile, if using. The longer you let the martini sit, the more the cubes will infuse into the martini.
Note: To make spicy Mary cubes, make your own Bloody Mary mix or buy a premade one and add horseradish, whole olives, or Worcestershire sauce, or whatever else you like to put in your Bloody Mary mix. Pour the spicy Mary mix into ice trays. Place the trays in the freezer and let sit until cubes are frozen.
