Thanks to Big Daddy’s or sending me their Bloody Mary mix to review!
Between going “out for bloodies” and my travel schedule, it usually takes a special occasion for me to make them at home; this time, I broke out the bottle to make Bloody Marys for my dad and me on Memorial Day.
To keep the test pure, I sampled Salvy Sousa mixed with an unflavored Skyy Vodka and added olives, a pickle and smoked mozzarella string cheese.
According to their website, Big Daddy’s creator, James Miller, has been a bartender for over 20 years. During this time, James realized that the key to a good Bloody Mary is consistency (which I totally agree with) as the taste can vary greatly from bartender to bartender and day to day. So, James created a Bloody Mary mix for the establishment where he worked. Now as a bar owner, James makes the mix by the gallons and bottles it for his loyal customers to this day. Unfortunately, at this time, Big Daddy’s is not available for purchase.
The verdict: This mix was very good, but very thick! You definitely need to add more vodka and/or ice (I recommend vodka) to thin it out. It would also be very good in chili and sauces.
Thanks again to the good folks at Big Daddy’s for the samples!
Cheers!
