Bloody Bull Cocktail

I swear to you that I'm not getting any kickbacks from Del Monte, the makers of Snap-E-Tom tomato juice cocktail. It's just one of the best mixers around, if you can find it. Sometimes you have to order it online, by the case. That should last a long time, unless you swill these kinds of drinks every day (get help!)

A double bloody bull:

3 oz. vodka

3 oz. beef boullion

3 oz. Snap-E-Tom

About a teaspoon of Worchestershire sauce

About the same of lemon juice

A few drops of Tabasco or similar hot sauce (optional, depending on your heat preference)

Skip the salt -- this already has plenty. Mix with ice cubes, and enjoy. Celery sticks make a good garnish.

If you are on the wagon, skip the vodka -- in Australia, that's called a Bloody Shame.
