Dear LazyWeb:

[mlerules]

I want a Bloody Mary. What should I do to satisfy this itch? (No, I'm not going anywhere to get one.) Thank you.

EDIT: Thx for suggestions. We've found a recipe we're trying: it's called Algonquin. And it's quite good! But in an amazing bit of irony, here we are in the worst Winter weather in the PacNW in years and the one thing we're missing:

ICE CUBES!

Actually, they have individual cans of bloody mary mix at pretty much any store. It's spicy tomato juice essentially. :)

I prefer foregoing mixes in favor of doing it myself, actually. (Um, or having the sub make it, ideally ;-) (The Acolyte of Delight's being quite delightful this evening.)

I understand; but in a pinch, they're useful if you just have vodka and a glass.

In a pinch, I'll just have a G&T, b'c I always have tonic water and good gin (and usually limes).

Have you perchance tried Hendrix Gin? Damned good stuff.

No, I haven't. I usually stock Tanqueray and Saphhire. Thx for the tip.

And you have a sub to make them for you. Whereas I'm a sub and I don't have a Dom *and* I don't have anybody to mix drinks for, most of the time.
