BLOODY
MARIA.
SAME BREAKFAST. DIFFERENT BAD DECISION.

barbecue flavour, savoury tomato and enough heat to make breakfast
considerably more interesting.
Ingredients.
- 45 ml blanco tequila
- 120 ml tomato juice
- 15 ml fresh lime juice
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1–2 tsp H-01 STANDBY Chipotle BBQ Hot Sauce, to taste

Method.
-
01
Prep the glass.
Run a lime wedge around the rim of a tall glass and dip it into chilli salt or celery salt. Fill the glass with ice.
-
02
Build it.
Add the tequila, tomato juice, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce and H-01 STANDBY to a mixing glass filled with ice.
-
03
Mix.
Stir thoroughly or roll gently between two glasses until everything is cold and properly combined.
-
04
Taste.
Add celery salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Taste, then add another splash of H-01 if you want more smoke and heat.
-
05
Serve.
Pour over fresh ice and garnish with celery, lime and green olives.
Adjust accordingly.
Smokier
Add another teaspoon of H-01 for more chipotle barbecue character.
Hotter
Add a small splash of H-06 LIFTOFF if mild suddenly feels irresponsible.
Extra citrus
Increase the fresh lime juice for a sharper, brighter finish.
No alcohol
Leave out the tequila and add more tomato juice. Still technically breakfast.
Smoke. Tomato.
Tequila. Sorted.
H-01 STANDBY's chipotle barbecue flavour works naturally with tomato, lime and tequila, adding smoke, sweetness and mild chilli heat without turning the drink into a punishment.
At 3/10 heat, H-01 gives you room to add enough sauce for real flavour while keeping the Bloody Maria properly drinkable.
