Ingredients and Tips
- Tomato juice – Clamato also works great.

- Wasabi paste – You can also use horseradish if you can’t find wasabi.
- Vodka – Use your favorite plain vodka.
- Spices – You’ll need celery salt and black pepper.
- Garnishes – These are totally optional, but I love to garnish this drink with scallions, lemongrass and a lime wedge.
Recipe Variations and Dietary Swaps
- Tequila – Turn this into a Bloody Maria by swapping the vodka for tequila.
- Lime juice – Add a dash of fresh lime juice for a citrus twist.
- Non-alcoholic – Omit the vodka for a virgin version of this drink.

Frequently Asked Questions
Of course! The garnish is made of edible ingredients and is meant to be a snack to enjoy as you sip your hearty beverage.
It is rumored that drinking a bloody mary the morning after drinking a lot of alcohol can help your body focus on the new alcohol in your bloodstream and ignore the old. Then the tomato juice and the other ingredients supposedly help to replenish your body with vitamins. There’s no official proof this works, but some people believe that it works wonders. Personally, I do not suggest getting over a hangover by drinking more alcohol.
This is my favorite drink and I Love the Asian flare!
Incredibly story behind this very delicious cocktail! It was so refreshing and tasty and did not disappoint!
This is such a gorgeous cocktail! I love it!
Perfect drink for summertime!
I made this delicious Bloody Mary, but I improvised a little. I muddled in some cilantro, added 2 T fresh lime juice, some lemongrass purée and sliced up a fresh jalepano and added that as well. I made a triple batch in a cocktail shaker. A little calamato in addition to the tomato juice. AMAZING!!
