Notes

Tequila - Use quality tequila for this recipe. Or use Mezcal Tequila for a smoky flavor.

Alcohol - Add more or less to create the perfect amount in your drink. You can also swap the tequila with vodka if you prefer.

Spice - Want it to be extra spicy, add more hot sauce, or less if you prefer mild. You can also add in cayenne pepper to the cocktail for added spice.

Toppers - You can garnish your bloody maria or leave it plain. Tomatoes, tomatillos, pickles, green olives, bacon, cocktail shrimp, and more are all great topper ideas.

Storing - You can store any leftover Bloody Maria mixture in the fridge in a sealed container for up to a week. Shake well before you go to pour into a glass.
