- 1 1/3 cups (10 ounces) chilli vodka (or ordinary vodka and a few splashes Tabasco)
- splash dry sherry
- 2½ cups (20 ounces) tomato juice, chilled
- juice of a quarter to half a lemon (to taste)
- few shakes of celery salt
- few dashes Worcestershire sauce
- good sprinkling of Maldon or other sea salt, to taste
- celery stick or two
- Pour all the ingredients, except for the celery sticks, into a pitcher and use a celery stick to stir, then leave it in the pitcher: Bloody Mary needs a stir before each pouring.
