Cheap and Dirty Garden Mary

Submitted by pamela t.

"What can I say? Who doesn’t like a great Bloody Mary? This one uses green pepper from the garden to make it healthy (haha) and ponzu lime citrus for the lime. Spicy V8 and Bloody Mary mix make this drink downright dirty! Garnished with leafy celery and lemon slices make this one pretty cocktail. Party on! (This recipe makes 4 drinks; it serves 4 people or one person who’s very happy) If you really like a kick, add 1 T. prepared horseradish to the blender. Super-spicy!"

Oh yeah. I'll have another. Zingy - perky - perfect. Who'd have thought?

Wow! Talk about zingy! At first I wasn't sure how this was going to turn out, but it turned out really well. I didn't find any of the ingredients overpowering, although I'm kind of glad that the vodka wasn't too strong, in this drink.
