According to McCormick, Old Bay Seasoning — you know, the stuff you use when you are cooking up blue crabs, shrimp, or some other favored seafood — is the perfect addition to your Bloody Mary. The spice company explains that the base ingredient that gives Old Bay Seasoning its memorable personality is celery salt. It also contains paprika and red and black pepper. The StackExchange forum notes that's because celery's pungent smell and flavor work well against the tomato juice. It's really the perfect combination.
To use this savory ingredient in your next Bloody Mary, Old Bay suggests using this seasoning to "coat the rims" of whatever glass you serve this cocktail in. But according to Spiced, you might want to add a teaspoon to your Bloody Mary cocktail as well, to get the full effect of Old Bay's flavor. And whatever you do, don't neglect spending a little bit of thought on the appetizing food you garnish this drink with. Spiced recommends bacon or olives on a cocktail skewer, or even some delicious shrimp, but a stalk of celery is also a natural pick. Bottoms up!
