Bloody Mary-Flavored Gazpacho

Turn the make-your-own Bloody Mary bar into the best incentive to get up early for brunch.

Grilled Tomato and Toasted Chili Cocktail

Smoky, but not overpowering, fresh tomatoes and lime juice keep this chili-spiced cocktail bright and refreshing. It's perfect for brunch on a hot summer day.

Bloody Mary

The Bloody Mary is, of course, a staple of the American brunch and a universal hangover cure. The drink's origins are oft-rumored and still open to the kind of disputed bickering that is absolutely painful on a weekend morning, so it's best to move onto the heart of the matter: what's essential in your Bloody Mary?

Grilled Bloody Mary Salsa

Char-grilled tomatoes are mixed with lemon, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and an excellent source of spice: fresh chile de arbol for a dash of Mexican authenticity.

Clamato Sangrita With Jalapeño and Coriander

This tomato-based sangrita makes a savory, spicy tequila chaser, perfect for Bloody Mary (or Bloody Maria) fans.

Gazpacho Bloody Mary With Pickled Shrimp

Summery chilled gazpacho is dosed with gin and spiced up for this light and refreshing take on the traditional Bloody Mary. Served with a garnish of pickled shrimp, it's the perfect excuse to have your brunch and drink it, too.

Spicy Bloody Mary With Cilantro and Fried Shallots

Thai dipping sauce goes cocktail in this fish sauce–spiked Bloody Mary, seasoned with spicy sambal oelek, cilantro, and lime. It's topped with a glug of beer for some effervescence and garnished with a sprinkle of crunchy fried shallots.

Shochu Bloody Mary With Wasabi and Pickled Ginger

Sake and shochu combine in this Japanese twist on the Bloody Mary. Pungent powdered wasabi offers a spicy bite, while sweet and garlicky teriyaki sauce rounds things out. Garnished with pickled ginger and a togarashi rim, it's a savory, bright way to kick off brunch.

El Derby Ahumado (Basil Julep With Cucumber, Jalapeño, and Mezcal)

Mezcal, cucumber, jalapeño, and basil place this drink quite far from a classic mint julep, but it's well worth the departure.

Mojalisco

If you like the flavors of a Dark and Stormy, Moscow Mule, or Mojito, you'll love the Mojalisco.
