Creating The Ultimate Bloody Mary Bar

The Bloody Mary is a vodka-soaked nutritional breakfast and hangover cure all in one. What else could you ask for?

This idea for the Ultimate Bloody Mary Bar came after a 5k where we celebrated at Whistle Binkies on the Lake with their build-your-own Bloody Mary bar. I admit, I'd never made mine own before but I must have missed my bartender calling because it was delicious! My neighbor and I decided what better way to celebrate the Good Neighbor Days Parade in Byron where we always have a neighborhood gathering than with a Bloody Mary bar!

I went to Facebook to ask you your favorite ingredients (and a little bit of Pinterest too). Here are the MUST-HAVE ingredients we came up with for the Ultimate Bloody Mary Bar.
