Red Snapper Cocktail

Description

This red snapper cocktail is a sophisticated spin on the Bloody Mary, blending botanical gin with savory tomato, bright lemon, and a subtle kick of spice. Customize with your favorite garnishes like olives, pickles, or cheese cubes.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon celery salt, or as needed
• 1 lime wedge
• 2 cups ice cubes, or as needed

• 5 dashes Tabasco sauce, or to taste
• 3 dashes Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
