Airport Bloody Marys can be a bit of a gamble, and this one definitely wasn’t worth the gamble.
I was at the St. Louis Airport in St. Louis, MO (Terminal 2) and stopped at one restaurant, where I overheard the bartender say they didn’t have olives. So I kept walking and ended up at the bar at Great American Bagel because I saw a woman there who was drinking a Bloody Mary and that one at least had olives… However, once I had my drink in hand, we started comparing notes and quickly agreed on one thing: neither of us could taste the alcohol.
She ordered a double. I ordered a double. Still couldn’t taste it.
She ordered another one. I decided I’d had enough of the experiment.
The Bloody came with two olives and, beyond that, there wasn’t much to write home about. Add in the airport price tag, and this one was pretty lackluster.
Mix: Unknown
Garnish: 2 olives
Chaser: None
Our take: Overpriced airport Bloody ($24 for the double) that was light on flavor and apparently light on alcohol
