Bloody Mary

adapted from Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything

makes 4 servings

3 cups tomato juice (I used a combo of veggie cocktail and tomato juice)

¾ cup vodka

Several drops Tabasco or other hot sauce

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, or to taste

1 tsp prepared hot horseradish, or to taste

Kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper

1 lemon, quartered

Celery stalks, for garnish

Combine the first 6 ingredients in a pitcher, adjust seasonings to taste. (Me, I doubled them. That's just the way I roll.)

Fill four tall glasses with ice and add the liquid. Squeeze in the lemon and drop the lemon carcass right into the glass. Garnish and serve.
