Bloody Maya Mix

November 25, 2020 0 Comments

We love a good Bloody Mary or Bloody Maria, so we thought, why not a Bloody Maya? Maya, according to Brittanica, originally denoted the magic power with which a god can make human beings believe in what turns out to be an illusion. What better name for a cocktail?

And if you’re not into illusions brought on by booze, we think the mixer is delicious as is (don’t forget the garnishes!) or when used in a Virgin Bloody Maya using non-alcoholic beer.

Ingredients (make enough mixer for 6 drinks)

• 32 oz tomato juice
• 2 lemons
• 6-8 dashes of Worcestershire Sauce 
• 1 TBSP Masi Masa Tikka Masala Spice Blend
• Vodka (to make it a Virgin Bloody Maya, replace with non-alcoholic beer)

Garnishes (use as many or as few as you’d like!)

• Mini samosas (try Sukhi’s Potato Samosas, available at Whole Foods)
• Cucumber chunks
• Cherry tomatos
• Cocktail onions

For rim of glass (optional)

• 2 TBSP coarse sea salt
• 1 tsp Masi Masa Tikka Masala Spice Blend
• 1 tsp onion flakes

Directions (for mix)

1. Combine all the ingredients except garnishes and vodka in a large measuring cup (cut lemons on half and squeeze in lemon juice), mix well
2. TASTE and adjust to your liking
3. Pour into a jar (or the tomato juice container) and store in fridge for up to a week

Prepare garnishes & glasses

1. Stick garnishes on a thin skewer or cocktail pick
2. On a plate, mix together 1/4 tsp Tikka Masala and 1 tsp coarse sea salt 
3. With a paper towel, wet the rim of a pint glass
4. Press rim of glass into salt mixture

To Serve

1. Fill glass with ice
2. Add 1-1.5 oz of vodka (for a Virgin Bloody Maya, replace with non-alcoholic beer)
3. Add Bloody Maya Mix to fill glass
4. Stir well
5. Serve with skewer of garnishes
