Crimson Bloody Mary
A bloody Mary is one of the quintessential beverages served on game day & it may be prepared a number of ways but those with a little fresh citrus added tend to be best. Stir in a splash of beer & it feels fresh & new. Give it a name that speaks to your alma matter & it truly becomes your own creation. Look to Game Day Cocktails 101: The Bloody Mary for additional pointers on how to craft your own. In the meantime, learn how to make a signature sipper ideal for tailgating & football party festivities.
