Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp (15g) celery salt
  • 1 tbsp (15g) smoked paprika
  • 1 lemon wedge for rimming
  • 2 cups (475ml) premium low-sodium tomato juice
  • 6 oz (180ml) grain vodka
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tsp (10g) prepared horseradish
  • 1 tsp (5ml) hot sauce
  • 0.5 tsp (2.5g) freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 4 stalks leafy celery

Instructions:

  1. Mix the 1 tbsp celery salt and 1 tbsp smoked paprika on a small plate. Rub a lemon wedge around the rims of four highball glasses and dip them into the spice mixture until evenly coated and dark red. Note: The paprika adds a smoky aroma that hits your nose before the drink hits your tongue.
  2. In a large pitcher or cocktail shaker, combine the 2 cups tomato juice, 6 oz vodka, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 2 tsp horseradish, 1 tsp hot sauce, 0.5 tsp black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt.
  3. Roll the drink by gently pouring the mixture back and forth between two vessels 4 to 5 times. Do this until the spices are no longer clumped and the color is uniform. Note: Rolling preserves the weight of the tomato juice better than shaking.
  4. Fill the prepared highball glasses with fresh ice. Stop when the ice is level with the rim to ensure the garnish has a stable base.
  5. Pour the Bloody Mary mixture over the ice until the liquid is just below the spice rim.
  6. Garnish each glass with a leafy celery stalk. Wait for the leaf to stand upright before adding the next element.
  7. Add one lemon slice to the edge of each glass.
  8. Finish by placing a green olive on top or skewering it with the lemon.
  9. Serve immediately while the condensation is just starting to form on the glass.
