The Horseshot.
(Smirnoff, tomato juice and horseradish)
Someone, it seems, is always trying to improve on the Bloody Mary. But only rarely do we run across a variant we consider successful. Recently we discovered just such a happy exception when a ski-touring friend stopped through and suggested we try a Horseshot. "It has a pleasant and rambunctious edge to it," was his claim "like the flavour of that red cocktail sauce that you can never quite get enough of." We agree with our friend and also this simple rule for enjoying The Horseshot: "I save it for apres-ski."
To make a Horseshot, pour 1 1/2 oz. Smirnoff into a glass with ice. Fill with tomato juice, add horseradish to taste and stir. |
