A Bloody Mary With a Sting
Like its venomous namesake fish, the Fugu Spicy Bloody Mary packs a sting — the pepper-forward mix is the star, with Fugu Vodka (itself a multi-gold winner: 2019 & 2021 SFWSC Gold) keeping the base clean. It's the tailgate-and-brunch can: no mixing, no garnish required, though a celery stalk never hurt. Explore more Cutwater Spirits RTDs and vodka-based favorites at Del Mesa Liquor.
Tasting Notes
Brand copy: "packs a sting... dangerously drinkable" — ripe tomato up front, exotic spice mid-palate, a heavy black-pepper kick on the finish; clean vodka base underneath.
How to Enjoy
Chill hard and pour over ice in a tall glass; add celery, pickled green bean or a Tajín rim if you're feeling ambitious. Serve at brunch or as a hair-of-the-dog.
