The Mix Morning Rush Bloody Mary Throwdown — Who Makes the Best?
This Sunday, Buffalo's first "Bloody Mary Festival" converges on Shea's, presented by StepOutBuffalo (in pic above, Lauren and Emily from Step Out). Ten area bars and restaurants will compete for the best Bloody Mary via taste-testing by YOU (that is, if you got tickets. It sold out QUICKLY!).
Keith and I will give you a full recap on Monday morning; but in the meantime, we went head-to-head in a homemade Bloody Mary Battle Royale!
Last night, each of us made our own concoctions. Keith has MANY bartender friends he used as a resource. Laura is using her own personal recipe she's used for years on Christmas morning.
In the blind taste test, Lauren and Emily from Step Out Buffalo tried each of our drinks. Who's recipe reigns supreme? Find out here!
We also had a pair of tickets to Sunday's event for the best suggested name for our cocktails.
The winner was Tracy Seifert from N. Buffalo who came up with:
"Dahhhhmmm, Daniels" for Laura's
and
"Krazy Keith" for Keith's!
Here's the winner of taste test, created haphazardly, yet stylishly, by Laura:
A few other suggestions:
Kerri / Amherst: Laura's Morning Tongue Pleaser, Keith's Tomato Tingle Zinger
Josette / Hamburg: Laura's Luscious Bloody Mary, Keith's Killer Bloody Mary
Chrissy / Buffalo: Laura's Lucky, Keith's Kickbutt
Jon / Lancaster: Spam Juice (from Laura's Spam experience yesterday), Keith's Krazy Konkoction
Donna / Akron: Laura's Tasty Tomato Tingler, Keith's Racy Rocket Launcher
Cheers!
