Gazpacho Mary

Infusing your Bloody Mary with fresh homemade gazpacho will bring your morning cocktail game to the next level.

Ingredients

For the Gazpacho:

  • 1 ripe, sweet tomato
  • 1/8 green pepper
  • ¼ cucumber, (peeled)
  • ½ clove garlic
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tsp sherry vinegar

For the Cocktail:

  • 2 oz chilled vodka
  • 10 oz chilled Gazpacho
  • 1 tbsp prepared horseradish
  • 2 tsp Tabasco hot sauce
  • Lemon Wedge, ( as garnish, optional)
  • Pitted green olives, (as garnish, optional)

  • Pickled Pearl onions (as garnish, optional)
  • Dill Pickle Spear, (as garnish, optional)
  • Crispy thick-cut bacon, (as garnish, optional)
  • Pickled Okra, (as garnish, optional)

Instructions 

  • For the gazpacho, bring a pot of water to a boil, with enough water to cover the whole tomato.
  • Cut an “X” into the bottom of the tomato, and cut out the core on the top, leaving the tomato intact.
  • Place the tomato in the boiling water for 30 seconds, or until the skin begins to come away from the flesh of the tomato.
  • Cool the tomato under running cool water or an ice bath.
  • Peel the skin off the tomato and discard skin.
  • Place the remaining gazpacho ingredients in a blender and blend until the consistency is completely smooth.
  • Taste and adjust for seasoning.
  • Add more sherry vinegar if needed.
  • Allow to cool in the fridge.
  • For the cocktail, combine the ingredients together well.
  • Serve in a tall glass over ice, with whatever garnishes you prefer.

Notes

The gazpacho will taste best if used within 2 days of being made. You can make a larger batch and drink whatever you don’t use in your cocktails.
