Bloody Mary Bar

Sprinkle the Old Bay seasoning on a plate. Rub the rim of your serving glasses with a lemon wedge and dip rim into the Old Bay seasoning to coat it. Set aside.

Next, make your Bloody Mary mix. In a quart sized mason jar, add the Bloody Mary mix ingredients. Replace lid and shake.

Then you are ready to assemble the cocktails. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and pour about 6 ounces of mix and 2 ounces of Mezcal over the ice. Put the lid on. Shake gently and pour the entire mixture (including ice) into a rimmed glass. Repeat with remaining cocktails.

Garnish with celery, lemon wedge and remaining garnishes of your choice. Serve immediately and enjoy!
