Yeah that makes sense. Explains why it looks like a Caesar. Cool!
I dont even know what a Caesar is, I must google!
It's very similar to a bloody Mary but it mixes clam juice in with the tomato juice. It sounds weird but it's delicious. So it's vodka, clamato (tomato and clam juice), worchestershire sauce, tobasco, and salt and pepper, with celery spice rimmer. They are also known for having very elaborate garnishes. Standard garnish would be a celery, olive, and probably a spicy bean but some places add a pepperette (small pepperoni sausage) or a shrimp, or something like that.
Some places take it way too far and add the most ridiculous garnishes like a chicken wing, pizza slice, small hamburger or the craziest of all, a full roast chicken hahaha 😆 those get into the realm of stupidity though.
Hahahaha, if someone put a fucking chicken on my drink I would beat them with it!
That does looks awesome. I am trying to imagine the clam juice, I guess it would add a bit of seafood umami to it. If I ever see it I am getting one!
Lmao 😂
Yeah it's hard to say what the clam juice adds tbh. They are huge in Canada but I don't even know if they make them in the US. All I ever hear people talk about are bloody Mary's. Actually I've had one on a few cruises but they weren't very good and you can actually buy a premixed version in a can, but also not great. If you can find "Motts clamato" juice you can make them yourself. That would be the best option, but probably not easy to find in Europe. The more I think of it the more I think it's a Canadian cultural thing haha.
I think definitely a cultural thing from anywhere else other than the uk. I have never seen anything of those things!
But I will try it when I eventually do!
