Notes

Prepare ahead of time: Chill the bloody mary mix and vodka, prep your garnishes, and have your bar area all clean and ready to go. That way it's easy to set up right before guests arrive.

Don't mix: You'll see in the photos that I kept both the mix and the vodka in separate containers. That way your guests can ensure their drink is the perfect blend for them and isn't too strong.

Make it virgin: Have some friends who don't drink? That's ok, you can drink the mix plain! They can still add any toppings they want, just exclude the vodka.

Rim the glass: Run a lemon wedge around the rim of the glass and then dip it into some Old Bay seasoning

Go all out: Get fancy with the toppings and add as many as your heart desires! Going over-the-top is encouraged in this scenario, don't be shy!

Skewers: Keep these metal cocktail skewers on hand so that guests can add their toppings without worrying about them sinking to the bottom of the glass!

Leftovers: Any leftover mix can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and the lid can go back on your vodka bottle. If you have leftover garnishes, keep them in separate plastic bags or containers in the fridge for a couple of days.
