Farmer John teamed up with cocktail creator and bartender Saeed "Hawk" House to create game day cocktails that pack a punch with extra protein. Hawks' Hair of the (Hot) Dog Bloody Mary can be prepared with a curated Bloody Mary mix, plus tequila or vodka, as well as savory garnishes like a beef frank, bacon or pepperoncini.
Another twist on a classic cocktail can be appreciated with a second recipe, the Farmer John Old Fashioned, which is made with bacon-infused whiskey, maple syrup and bitters, plus bacon and orange peel garnishes.
Beyond the Super Bowl, these over-the-top cocktails can be found at a Anti-Valentine's Day themed pop-up for a limited time at Break Up Bar at Severance on Melrose Avenue.
