This Sriracha Bloody Mary Recipe post was one of our first recipe posts back in 2009. It’s anoldie but goodie!
Spicy Sriracha Bloody Mary
So it appears we’re on a culinary journey to create a small, but sinfully spicy collection of sriracha infused recipes. And loving every minute of it! Playing with a bottle of hot sauce has never been so hot and gratifying. Previously, we’ve shared our homemade sriracha-style chili hot sauce recipe, an addicting creamy spicy hot sauce mayo that you can lather on just about anything, and a party pleasing recipe for hot sriracha chicken wings!
With many other hot sauce recipes in queue, we’ve been experimenting with so much sriracha hot sauce, everyone thinks we’re drinking the bottle of red gold!
Oh, wait! Drink it? What a great idea!
A Sriracha Bloody Mary recipe is now born and ready to blow the socks off anyone who is a self-proclaimed sriracha and Bloody Mary addict.
What Hot Sauce to Use?
Using your favorite hot sauce to replace the conventional Tabasco hot sauce used in most Bloody Mary recipes, this sriracha addition will leave you with an equally quenching, but slightly brighter spicy flavors from your traditional Bloody Mary. There are many recipes for Bloody Marys out there, so you can stick to your tried-and-true favorite Bloody Mary recipe and all you need to do is squirt in the sriracha instead of the Tabasco.
The Asian inspired tangy heat from the sriracha is definitely different, but subtle and bright enough to excite your Bloody Mary taste buds with something new.
We’re game for experimenting with cocktails of all sorts, just look in our garden and you’ll see the proof. Our 13 citrus trees are not just for straight eating, friends. Nor are the citrus for visual garden pleasure. There’s a plan and purpose for each citrus tree and the most important use for all the citrus trees are for cocktails!
Cocktail garnishes are something we’re really fascinated by because having a great garnish can really make folks swoon over a cocktail. So although most of the garden is still in it’s Winter hibernation, we were able to find some great little specimens still growing from Summer!
Different Cocktail Garnishes
Above: (L) a thin wedge of lime ribboned with a celery leaf. (R) thin, tender stalks of celery with the leaves attached Below: (L) baby carrots for the perfect shot of Bloody Mary! (R) some skewered cherry tomatoes (do you believe we still have tomatoes growing in December??! Although it’s too cold for them to ripen, they’re still exploding)
Have fun at your next brunch or party with a big pitcher of this Sriracha Bloody Mary and definitely don’t forget to get creative with your garnishes. Make everyone drool and swoon with excitement over so much beauty in a glass.
Let’s Drink!

Made these for Super Bowl and was amazing! Hubby likes it extra spicy so he doubled the sriracha. I added some extra horseradish. Thanks for the inspiration!

I just started using the sriracha in my bloody mary’s early this summer! Using horseradish and worchestershire sauce just is too close to cocktail sauce for me so I skip that – add lots of lemon and lime juice, some fresh ground pepper and garnish with locally made pickled okra and a green olive or two (tossing a bit of the juice in the drink for health). If it’s an especially hot day, I top it off with some seltzer water to make it sparkle!
Coastal NC style! don’t forget the bendy straw!

two of my favorites…together! I love it
and since I don’t really love sucking horseradish up my straw I love the idea of infusing the vodka before hand

First post I read this morning and now I have a hankering for a bloody mary! Your garnishes make me want summer to get here already. I did see buds on the trees already! 🙂

I never thought of using Sriracha, but I adore a Bloody Mary. And at least according to my mother, the juice counteracts the alcohol (she’s obviously not giving any medical advice any time soon, LOL).
