“Bloody Mary Mate” is not a common cocktail or a well-known variation of the classic Bloody Mary. Instead, the term most often refers to a specific type of spice blend or seasoning mix. Several companies, such as The Spice House, sell a product by this name.
This spice blend is designed to enhance the flavor of a Bloody Mary and is typically used in a couple of ways:
Rimming the glass: A common practice is to moisten the rim of the glass with a lime wedge and then dip it into the “Bloody Mary Mate” for a savory, spicy rim.
Mixing into the drink: A sprinkle of the blend can be added directly to the Bloody Mary itself to deepen the flavor profile.
The ingredients in these blends often include a combination of savory and salty spices, such as:
- Kosher salt
- Celery salt or celery seed
- Onion powder
- Garlic powder
- Black pepper
- Various peppers for heat, such as cayenne pepper or green peppercorns.
