A Bloody Mary with the perfect vegan ingredient!
When it comes to classic cocktails, the Bloody Mary reigns supreme. Its bold flavours, zesty kick, and refreshing nature make it the ultimate brunch companion. But what if you’re vegan, or just looking to spice things up with a unique twist? This is where we introduce you to our Vegan Bloody Mary made with Henderson's Relish – a version of this iconic cocktail that’s bursting with flavour, all while staying vegan and cruelty-free.
What is Henderson’s Relish?
Henderson's Relish is a famous Sheffield-based condiment that’s often compared to Worcestershire sauce but with its own unique flavour profile. It’s tangy, umami-rich, and slightly sweet, making it a perfect addition to a Bloody Mary. Unlike traditional Worcestershire sauce, which typically contains anchovies, Henderson's Relish is 100% vegan. This makes it an ideal substitute, adding depth to your cocktail without compromising on flavor.
Why Go Vegan?
A traditional Bloody Mary is already relatively easy to make vegan, but there are often hidden non-vegan ingredients lurking in the mix. Worcestershire sauce, for example, usually contains fish (anchovies) or fish-derived ingredients. By swapping that out for Henderson's Relish, you ensure your drink stays cruelty-free without losing any of the richness or complexity of the original. Plus, it's just fun to try something new!
Our Bloody Mary Ingredients:
Our Award-Winning Bloody Mary is crafted with high-quality ingredients to deliver bold, savoury flavours:
• Premium Vodka: A smooth and clean base to complement the savoury notes.
• Tomato Juice: Rich and tangy, forming the heart of this iconic cocktail.
• Spices & Seasonings: A balanced mix of horseradish and wasabi paste for the heat combined with Henderson's Relish.
• Lemon juice: Adds brightness to lift the savoury profile.
Serving Instructions:
Enjoy the Award-Winning Bloody Mary in three simple steps:
1. Chill: Ensure the bottle is thoroughly chilled before serving for the best flavour experience.
2. Pour & Garnish: Serve in a tall glass over ice. Garnish with a celery stick, lemon wedge, or even a pickle for a traditional finish.
3. Sip & Enjoy: Savour the bold, tangy flavours, perfect for brunches or relaxed gatherings.
Customisation Tips
-
Spice it up: If you like it extra hot, feel free to increase the amount of hot sauce or horseradish. You can even add a splash of pepper vodka for a little more kick.
-
Vegetable variations: While celery is the classic garnish, don’t be afraid to get creative with other garnishes. Pickled green beans, olives, or even roasted cherry tomatoes can elevate the drink to new heights.
Why This Works:
The combination of tomato juice, lemon, horseradish and wasabi, and the rich, umami flavour of Henderson’s Relish brings a complexity to the drink that’s perfect for a morning or afternoon cocktail. The relish adds a depth you won’t find with the usual Worcestershire sauce, offering a perfect balance between tanginess and savoury flavours.
The addition of fresh fresh lemon juice and horseradish and wasabi gives our Bloody Mary a unique and delicious punch. And the best part? You can enjoy all this without compromising on your vegan lifestyle.
