This one is definitely best with some great mix ins, and for that, we’ve got you covered!
What is a Caesar?
A Caesar cocktail is many things:
A beloved favorite of our Northern Neighbors across the border. (In fact, Canada loves it so much, they named it their national drink and dubbed May 18th “National Caesar Day!”) A great after-work cocktail for when you feel like saying “with Clamato, eh” to your bartender. The ideal drink for brunches… (especially when the brunches involve egg dishes.) The drink of choice for those who like a little heat whilst having a cocktail!
However, there is one thing a Caesar Drink is not. It’s not a Bloody Mary. A Bloody Mary, in general, does not include Clamato juice in the mix but rather uses plain tomato juice or vegetable juice. A Caesar, my friends, takes it up a notch. You’ll love it. Carpe Clamato! Ingredients in a caesar are always vodka and clamato juice, the other additions can vary from recipe to recipe. Clamato is similar to tomato juice but so much more flavorful (and great in soups, stews and even added to beer).
How To Make A Caesar Drink
A Caesar drink takes very few steps to prepare but before you start, pop the glass in the freezer for a frosted cup! Garnish as desired.
My Favorite Caesar Toppings
Celery and pickled asparagus are go-to garnishes, but there are lots of things to try.
Celery is traditional! Pickled peppers or green beans Cocktail onions or olives Chopped cilantro or basil, other Italian style herbs.
Or go wild and garnish with a slice of crispy bacon, a pepperoni stick or beef jerky, a sprinkle of feta cheese or parmesan, clams or oysters, or even pickled eggs! This is one of those drinks that people love to make into a complete meal, so have some fun, (and drink responsibly).
