Back in the day, Black's Club in Soho introduced a breakfast menu... to which I added my favourite breakfast: Bloody Mary with a bacon sandwich.

Thought this was the kind of cocktail you should try at least once. But I actually really like it. My partner (who is slightly hungover today) also really appreciates it. I see myself making more of these in the future.

James White Drinks Ltd makes a spiced tomato mix called Big Tom, which takes all the work out of making a Bloody Mary, and is delicious on its own. I had not realised before just how good tomato juice could taste.
