Happy Halloween!

Lets finish this off right with one last creepy cocktail.  It would be wrong of me not to include this Canadian classic in some form or another and what better to compliment the delicious Crystal Head Vodka than a Caesar!




THE BLOODY HEAD COCKTAIL

2oz Crystal Head Vodka
5oz Clamato
Dash of Worcestershire Sauce
Dash (or 2 or 3, maybe even 4) hot sauce

Now I should point out that the recipe I was given to try included a dash of liquid smoke too but I don't have any of that so I sprinkled a little smoked paprika into the drink to give it a little smokey edge.

METHOD:  Add everything into a shaker filled with a handful of ice and shake till cold.  Strain into the pre rimmed glass (see below).

GARNISH:  Up to you, but we went for an eye ball and some delicious smoked, crispy bacon.

GLASS RIM: 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/4 tsp black pepper
Mix the ingredients on a small plate.  Rub the glass rim with a lemon/lime wedge and dip the glass into the mix.  Fill the glass with ice and pour over your drink.
