You eat the shrimp with cocktail sauce 🤤

🤔🤔 that sounds really interesting,

thank god i got to try out shrimp, they're incredible

Oh that's right! 🤣 We had shrimp in Riga!

Also a great garnish on a Bloody Mary cocktail 🤓

I think that's one of those #tanelwont things

Look up “gourmet” or “extreme” bloody mary pics… you will be amazed 🤣

Yes!

The thought of tomato juice makes me puke, maybe it's an age thing

I used to get nauseous whenever I thought of tomato juice and tomato soup when I was a kid. I used to gag. Then, I hit 30 and tried tomato bisque and a bloody mary and was very surprised at how good it was. I love tomato bisque now. I eat it probably once a month now. During the summers I have a bloody every weekend out on the boat.

Have you tried red beer? A little black pepper, clam juice, capers or cocktail olives, V8. So good and wholesome.

That just sounds like a bloody mary?

With beer, I don’t make my Bloody Mary with beer….do you?

Jac surely you have had a ceasaer?

I can’t say that I have. How is it made?

No, but I didn't see you mention beer besides the name. Wouldn't this be a Michaela then?

I looked this up. I think that the red eye variant has more tomato juice, it’s about 60% beer, 40% tomato juice, then garnish and spices to taste.

I know these as “red eyes”

The Mexican name for this drink (which we also use in the US) is Michelada. Sometimes it’s made with just lime and hot sauce, other times with tomato.

🍺🍅🌶️🍋🤙

This sounds about right. Tasty!

V8 or other super market brands aren’t great… but I would highly recommend trying fresh, or a more gourmet brand of tomato juice.

I’m told Old Bay gumbo mix is pretty righteous, too. It’s the dark roux.
