Do you guys like wasabi? We're pretty obsessed. I am especially excited to share this recipe, because my husband said it was the best bloody mary he's ever had. (bragging much?) I love unexpected flavor combinations!
Needed: Tomato juice, sesame seeds, tabasco sauce, wasabi powder, worcestershire sauce, vodka, starfruit, lemon and lime. Optional: Green olives and starfruit for garnish.
To prepare the rim for this drink, mix together 1 tablespoon each of salt, sesame seeds and wasabi powder. Use the juice of half a lime to wet the rim of your glass and then dip the rim into the wasabi mixture.
Directions: Fill half your glass with tomato juice and add one tablespoon wasabi powder (1/2 a tablespoon if spicy food scares you!) and mix well. Add ice. Next, add 1-2 shots vodka, 1 teaspoon tabasco, 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce and the juice of one half lemon. Stir with a long spoon and add a few sesame seeds to the top of your drink as garnish. Create a cute garnish stick with a few green olives and a slice of starfruit!
I hope you enjoy our spicy wasabi bloody mary! xo. Elsie
This looks delicious! The starfruit garnish is adorable!

I loooooove wasabi. I have never had a Bloody Mary but it is on my 2013 goal list to try one! I am sure going to miss it when I move back to Iowa and there is no sushi or wasabi to be found :(

Cutest. Garnish. Ever. The starfruit with the olives looks amazing! I'll have to give this recipe a try in a few months after... you know. I have a baby.

I am very partial to a siracha Bloody Mary so this seems a very good step up! Thank you

I've seen you say "four parts" something, but then there is not any parts of anything after that, so I'm not sure what the ratio is. How much is "four parts" in this recipe? It looks delicious and I can't wait to try it!

Bloody Marys are on my bucket list for 2013. I have recently started experimenting with more classic cocktails instead of the easier, sweet ones. This is definitely something to try! I'm a big fan of Wasabi coated peas as a snack :)

Nom! I wonder what it would be like to add a little pickled ginger.

this sounds SOOOO great! thanks :)

This sounds great! The combination of star fruit and wasabi sounds lovely.
Side note to #2 commenter Hannah- I live in Iowa & have wasabi from an Asian grocery here in town in my cupboard right now. I also enjoyed sushi (not the best ever but decent Sushi nonetheless) last week. Please be mindful that statements like that perpetuate an old stereotype about the Midwest that is simply untrue. :)
