    So as a NY bartender, I was always interested in how you all make bloddy's in new Orleans as they taste so different than ours. Based on what I see here, it's almost the same to my method except we use celery salt (typically) in stead of regular. He didn't mention the brand name of tomato juice, but in every bar I've ever worked it's always "Sacramento" brand tomato juice. In my many trips to new orleans, I've observed that you all tend to use V8. Very interesting...

    We had the privilege of meeting and being served by Chris his last night at the Library Lounge. It was a weeknight and slow, so we were able to sit at the bar and talk with him for over 3 hours. After we ordered our first round of drinks, Chris entertained us (and himself) by making many of his favorite cocktails. Can't tell you how many we sampled, and when we cashed out, he charged us only for our first round. Obviously we left a huge tip. He was a true gentleman raconteur and amazing host, even asked his wife to escort us the back way out and across the street to a restaurant. (We couldn't have found our own way, for obvious reasons.) It was a great and very memorable night.

    For the people talking about Horseradish, that is obviously a staple in your country or in your area etc., where I'm from you add celery and never pickles or olives and never that much black pepper. Its each to there own. A good barman asks the patron how they like their drink, you would have to say with horseradish and he would make it accordingly.

    I make my Bloody Mary's with a pinch or two of celery salt, prepared horseradish, and a dash of olive juice (more if customer likes it salty). Garnish with olives, celery, green bean or marinated asparagus spear. Other than that, my recipe is exactly the same as Chris'. Great info on the technique to mix. I cringe everytime someone shakes a Manhattan, Martini, or Bloody Mary.

    @mreisma If I may butt in: I don't know how to describe this biologically or technically, but my understanding is that a hangover is partly a withdrawl symptom - the body reacting to the sudden lack of alcohol in the blood. So if you take a *small* amount of booze the following day, you are relieving the withdrawl aspect. Personally, I find that drinking a Bloody Mary helps me when I'm feeling rough, but I'll *always* have drank alot of water and ate something big beforehand. Taste it.

    @mreisma the alcohol thinks the blood in the body. since a hangover is nothing more than the constriction of blood vessels it relives the pain and pressure.

    Chris, I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt here, but you've flatten out forgotten horseradish. I know everyone has different recipes but horseradish is a standard ingredient in all of them. If you did this on purpose, could you at least explained why you did not put horseradish in?
