Make The Spice Mix

First things first, you’ve got to make the spice mix. Mix all the spices you see here together, that’s all there is to it. If you are a true bloody mary lover, you would most likely never use V8 in your cocktail – until now. This recipe that I created brings the perfect full-bodied flavor and spice to that regular pantry staple and allows you to have a killer beverage in no time. Make up a large batch, keep in the cupboard with a few cans of V8 and you’re good to go. **If you do have time to let the mix marinate in the juice for like an hour – WOW. The key ingredients are Celery Salt and Worcestershire Powder (sauce powder or just powder, same thing) – they make this mix rock.

The recipe below makes 9, 3 teaspoon servings.

For the mason jar gifts, fill each tiny zip lock baggie with 3 teaspoons of Bloody Spice. It fits perfectly in these bags and is the correct amount to mix with 5.5 ounces of V8. You don’t have to use all the mix, it’s all about taste so it’s up to you and the drinker of the gift. I thought it was perfect with all the spice mix and no tabasco, but the hubby preferred his with all the spice mix and all the tabasco.

Download my free tag designs below, print them onto white 8.5″ x 11″ cardstock, and cut each one out. There are two tags for each jar, 4 sets on a sheet. Snip the corners and punch a hole in the tags.

“We Bloody Love You” or “I Bloody Love You”.

Take the bloody spice tags, fold them in half and staple over the top of the zip lock baggies. I designed them so that you staple on top of the design, right where the top of the bag is — so no holes in your mix!

Now Fill Your Gift Jars!

These 30 ounce mason jar mugs have steel lids and come with the red striped straw; they have no handle. They are made by Home Essentials and are available on Amazon and at some of these stores; BevMo!, Sears, Bed, Bath & Beyond, and Kmart – but it’s hit or miss on this exact jar. To save yourself time, call ahead.

Everything that you see here fits perfectly in this jar, it’s tight but it all fits. If you don’t buy these exact 30oz jars, please take the ones you buy with you when you are shopping for the rest of the supplies. If you don’t like Smirnoff, take your jar and V8 with you when choosing another Vodka, as those bottles might not fit. As for the V8, you can use any 5.5oz V8 that you’d like; the original, low sodium, spicy – they all work!

If you can’t stand V8 and don’t want to make the spice mix, you can always use Mr & Mrs T Bloody Mary 5.5 ounce cans.

I added raffia to the bottom of my jar first, then the V8, vodka, spice packet and tabasco.
