Puffed Snack Tomato Cocktails

This Bloody Mary Drink is Enhanced in Spice with Flamin' Hot Cheetos

— November 30, 2015 — Lifestyle
For those consumers that truly enjoy their spice, The Vulgar Chef has put together an extra spicy Bloody Mary drink that gains its piquant flavor from Flamin' Hot Cheetos snacks. The addition of the puffed cornmeal treats gives the drink added heat and flavor in a solid edible form.

Traditionally Bloody Mary beverages are made spicy through the addition of a hot sauce that kicks the drink up in heat. This recipe creatively subverts this notion by drawing upon a spicy cheesy chip to give the drink its added spice to the drink's base of tomato juice, vodka, horseradish, celery salt and Worcestershire. The decadent drink is topped with the Flamin' Hot Cheetos along with more outlandish garnishes including pickles, rotisserie chicken, olives and crispy bacon.
