I have been dying for a Bloody Mary - no, not the Lewes woman/queen - for days. I’ve got the vodka, got the ice, got the celery salt, the Worcester sauce, the Tabasco sauce, all the trimmings, but no tomato juice!! None anywhere. Is this a local thing or are we afflicted throughout the nation? I have now managed to grab some Big Tom cocktail mix. Anyway, it’s done the trick so cheers everyone and happy days in these miserable times. :bigwave:

Cocktail mixes are a ****ing disgrace. Use the real ingredients or wait till you can get them.

The juice from tinned tomatoes? Or you can order in bulk from Amazon to make sure you have enough juice to finish the vodka! :drink:

Love a Bloody Mary or a Caesar using clamato juice, also like making it with tequila rather than vodka

Tomato juice has been out of stock everywhere for several months. When I first noticed early in summer, I decided to stock up with our usual 2 or 3 cartons for Christmas, but they never reappeared. Like you a couple of Big Toms bottles was all I could get.

Ooh. Must try that. When I was visiting my daughter in Mexico I tried Mezcal - distilled from cactus I believe, that was interesting.

Mezcal is just more generic……tequila can only be made from blue agave (and certain regions), but Mezcal from a wider range of agave……..does taste different though (and usually stronger than tequila). Locals stitched me right up on a night out when I was working there :lolol:
