Virgin Bloody Mary: The Classic Brunch Mocktail
The virgin Bloody Mary is one of the most classic mocktails ever created. But to do it right is not such a simple task. While our Vegan Virgin Bloody Mary recipe involves several steps, we think it’s well worth sharing!
You’ll agree that a virgin cocktail needs to do more than just omit the alcohol—it needs to offer the same satisfaction as a cocktail. Crafting a non-alcoholic drink with the depth of a regular cocktail can be challenging, but our Vegan Virgin Bloody Mary proves it’s possible.
Indeed this Vegan Virgin Bloody Mary hits the mark: it’s flavorful, complex and substantive. In fact, we believe it’s better than most alcoholic Bloody Marys out there. Tell us what you think.
(Reproduce the recipe and let us know your thoughts. Your feedback may contribute to a next generation version of the drink.)
Back to brunch for a second. Some of us at 100 Healthy Humans are headquartered in NYC. And New York City does good brunch with many restaurants offering bottomless Bloody Marys. But unfortunately many of these Bloody Marys are just not very good.
If you’re underwhelmed by the virgin Bloody Mary from your local brunch spot, share this recipe with them and see what they can create. Or, do yourself the favor and make it at home for the best results. #brunch #veganvirginbloodymary
