Spicy Bloody Mary -The Brunch Hero (Made with Big Tom)

Spicy Bloody Mary — The Brunch Hero (Made with Big Tom)

Every good brunch deserves a Bloody Mary - but ours comes with a twist.

We use Big Tom Tomato Juice, a ready-spiced British classic that brings just the right kick of heat and savoury depth without the faff. Add a splash of vodka, a squeeze of lemon, and your preferred level of Tabasco, and you’ve got the perfect cocktail for lazy weekends and sociable mornings.

At Peak & The Pantry, we love a recipe that’s fast, flavourful, and crowd-pleasing - and this one always delivers. It’s punchy, balanced, and ready in minutes.

You’ll Need

• 50ml vodka

• 150ml Big Tom

• A few drops of Cool Chile Habanero Hot Sauce(optional — Big Tom already has a kick)

• A pinch of Asilia Chilli, Pepper Salt

• A wee drop of Perello Picanate Cocktail Olives

• Ice

• Or try our Bloody Mary Bundle

To Make

Fill a tall glass with ice.

Pour in the vodka and Big Tom, a dash of hot sauceif you fancy more heat, and a pinch of salt.

Stir gently and garnish to suit your mood - we like, lemons, olives and a pickled chilli

Make It Your Own

• Swap vodka for gin to make a Red Snapper.

• Add horseradish for extra fire.

• Garnish with celery, pickled chili, or even a crispy rasher of bacon for brunch theatre.

The beauty of Big Tom is that it does most of the work - you just add your spirit, ice, and imagination.

It’s a home cook’s shortcut to bar-quality flavour, and it fits perfectly in your hosting lineup - quick, bold, and made for sharing.
