This is one of the best cocktails I can remember having. (Remembering may be the key word to this.) It's a variation on the bloody Mary, and I would say it's an improvement on it.
For a double:
2 shots of vodka or gin, 1.5 ounces for each shot.
About a half teaspoon of horseradish, the prepared kind that has no dairy content in it.
About a teaspoon of lemon or lime juice.
A few drops of Tabasco sauce or other hot sauce, to taste.
About another teaspoon of Worchestershire sauce.
A jigger (1.5 oz.) of clam juice -- or commensurate Clamato juice, if you have it. I can't drink it because it has MSG.
If you don't have Clamato or can't drink it -- tomato juice or V-8 to make up for the lack of that. As much of that as fills the glass.
Celery sticks for garnish.
Plenty of ice to chill!
Black pepper, to taste. This should have enough salt already, but that can also be added to taste.
Some recipes call for fresh clams, if you can find them.
Combine and enjoy! Best way I've ever found to get a light buzz on before dinner!
