Prep Time: 15 minutes, Serves: 6
Bloody Mary
2 limes, cut into wedges
1/2 c. celery salt
Juice of 4 limes
2 tsp. celery seed, crushed
2 tsp. paprika
2 tsp. garlic powder
3 Tbsp. horseradish
1 Tbsp. hot sauce (to taste)
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 qt. organic tomato or vegetable cocktail
12 oz. pepper or regular vodka, chilled in freezer
6 celery stalks
Place celery salt in a shallow bowl. Run lime wedge around the rims of six pint glasses. Dip the glasses in the celery salt, so it creates a crust around the rim of the glass. Fill with ice, divide vodka evenly between the glasses, and set aside. Mix limejuice, spices, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper, tomato juice in a pitcher. Pour into glasses. Give the drink a quick stir, garnish with skewers and celery sticks, and serve.

3 thick slices salami, cut into quarters
