On a recent cruise, I grew to love Bloody Mary's. Before that, I wouldn't touch them. But there was something about sitting pool side on a lazy afternoon that craved the complex refreshing taste of  these savory drinks. I hope you enjoy this week's Che Belle Cose Cocktail, a version of a Bloody Mary, as much as I do! Bloody Mary 2 oz Vodka6 oz V8 Juice1 tsp Horseradish1/2 tsp fresh Lime Juice4 dashes Tabasco Sauce4 dashes Worcestershire Sauce1 pinch Peppers1 pinch Celery Salt2 whole, pitted green olives1 celery stalkAdd several ice cubes to a highball glass, grind some pepper on top and add some celery salt to make seasoned ice cubes. Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes, and shake well. Strain the mixture over the ice cubes in the highball glass. Squeeze a lime slice over the drink and drop it in the glass. Skewer green olives and float on top with a celery stalk.
