Before your posting this recipe I had never heard of Ole Smokey Moonshine, but it sure sounds very interesting. I also did not know that Jan 1st was Bloody Mary Day.
This sounds really interesting and yummy. I am pinning this one to try later. Thanks.
Yum. I’m a fan of Bloody Marys but this sounds even better. I’ll have to try this one!
I have never seen a recipe quite like this. I am not a Bloody Mary fan but have many family members that would love this.
OMG where were you and this recipe this morning. This looks SO good. I don’t have any Ole Smokey Moonshine, but going to see if the local store has it. Thanks.
One of the few dinks I enjoy is a welll made Bloody Mary. I like the kind with all of the sides- a pickle a celery stick. No kidding its like a mini meal in some places. This green one, not too sure about as I am not fond of tomatillos. I grew those things one year and they grew like crazy and I ended up giving every single one away. No clue why but they are just odd to me !
I think I will stick with the red version, but this would be interesting to see it made.
I don’t Drink very often. But a Bloody Mary is one of my Favorites.. However the old Smokey Green Bloody Mary is so different. I would be willing to try it . The ingredients sound awesome~ Except for the salt around the rim of the glass. I don’t care for that Not even on Margaritas ! Thankyou for Sharing your recipe. I am going to pin this recipe on pinterest!
I never cared for Bloody Marys, but this is different. I’ve never heard of a green Bloody Mary! Still not my thing, but it might be something new for a party.
No alcohol for me, but this is an interesting remedy. Thank you for sharing this recipe post and Happy New Year!
I don’t have to worry about a hangover tomorrow since I don’t drink.
I am sure this is a great drink! I visited Ole Smokey Distillery last year and their drinks were great!
I had never heard of Bloody Mary Day but 1/1 is probably a great day for it! Very interesting cocktail!
I didn’t know about Bloody Mary Day and we do know most of them. Thanks. What a unique twist. I’ve never had Ole Smoky Moonshine but am very intrigued with this recipe. The heat of the Tabasco and moonshine with the citrus of lime and lemon would be a nice combination to the bloody Mary. Thanks.
