Brie’s Homegrown Bloody Mary Recipe

Salty, spicy, and sweet, Bloody Marys are an incredibly flavorful cocktail—especially when the tomatoes are homegrown. This delicious recipe is courtesy of our resident plant expert, Brie Arthur.

“Bloody Marys have become a staple for our annual Tomato Tasting Fundraiser. I like to set up a make-your-own station so the guest can enjoy a custom drink.  Serve in a Mason jar over ice with a lid for regular shaking.”
