I’m not a huge drinker but do enjoy a spicy margarita from time to time. Since St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner (and because it’s not socially acceptable to drink margaritas in the morning), I created my own version of a Spicy Green Bloody Mary. To help soak up some of the alcohol, I went heavy on the garnishes. I topped mine with bacon, pickles, a huge cube of white cheddar, an olive, a piece of shrimp, a sport pepper and a slice of jalapeno (to really pack a punch). The spicier the better! What’s your go-to cocktail? Tell me in the comments below!
