Belle Meade Bourbon’s Bloody Belle

April 21, 2014 – This recipe comes from Charlie and Andy Nelson, who are reviving their family’s Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery in Tennessee. It’s a twist on the traditional Bloody Mary using Bourbon instead of vodka to add more flavor.

2 ounces Belle Meade Bourbon
Desired Zing Zang Mix (or Bloody Mary mix of your choice)
1 tablespoon olive brine
1 dash Worcestershire Sauce
2-3 dashes Tabasco Sauce
3/4 ounces Lemon juice
1 teaspoon Horseradish
2-3 turns Fresh ground black pepper

Build over ice in a pint glass over ice, then roll back and forth 3-4 times from one glass to another to mix. Garnish with olives, celery, and a lemon wedge.
