The Bloody Mary Blitz

It used to be the last thing I'd ever order; I could think of nothing worse than tomato juice. But then I used to spend an inordinate amount of time making them for hungover customers when I worked in bars and I thought I'd give it a go. 

Vodka, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, lemon, pepper, celery salt and horseradish all topped up off with a glug of tomato juice and that crunchy stick of celery - it's transformed my weekends and I make a mean one if I do say so myself.

Given the plethora of perfect brunch places these days in town, I thought it only fitting to begin The Bloody Mary Blitz a quest to find the best Bloody Mary in town. So far, the ones at Pollen Street Social and Mark's Bar at Hix (although he actually serves up a Red Snapper, made with gin instead) are topping the tables but who else will compare?
