FOOD FUN: Bloody Mary With Mexican Garnishes

Multi-Garnish Bloody Mary

Garnished Bloody Mary
[3] The Wayfarer in New York City calls this its Fully Loaded Bloody Mary, but we think of it as “Surf And Turf.” Here’s the recipe (photo © The Wayfarer | NYC).

Philly Cheesesteak Bloody Mary
[4] It’s called a Philly Cheesesteak Mary with grilled garnishes, but there’s no cheese cube because it would melt over the grill. Here’s the recipe from Campbell’s Kitchen. You can adjust the recipe with pearl onions, add cheese cubs when the skewer comes off the grill, or use halloumi cheese, which doesn’t melt. You can find the circular kabob skewers on Amazon.

 

You may have seen online photos of Bloody Mary’s so extensively garnished, that you wonder how anyone can get through the garnishes to enjoy the drink.

While this one is not quite so packed, it is fun. We like that an entire celery stalk more than doubles the height of the glass.

At the most basic level, anyone can use a 14″ stalk of celery to make an impression.

But Blue Moon Mexican Café, in Englewood and Wycoff, New Jersey, adds much more.

The restaurant has introduced a new Sunday brunch menu with different Bloody Mary garnishes.

We don’t know the recipe, but we do know the garnishes (see our Chipotle Maria Recipe below).

Here, the garnishes from Blue Moon Café (photo #1):

  • Mini empanada
  • Marinated jalapeño
  • Mini quesadilla
  •  
    Visitors to the restaurant can order a 68-ounce pitcher of Bloody Marys, served with fixings that include:

  • Beef jerky
  • Blue cheese-stuffed olives
  • Celery stalks
  • Cocktail onions
  • Gherkins
  • Marinated jalapeño
  •  
    Plus, the familiar wedges of lemon and lime.

    An upgrade at the restaurant includes a tray of bacon, plantains, mini cheese quesadillas and shrimp.

    But these additions are tame, when you look at these 10 outrageous Bloody Mary garnishes.

    What’s on your Bloody Mary?
