CLAMATO
Thursday, August 30th, 2007A drink unknown to most Europeans, Clamato is a tomato-clam cocktail. Tomato juice mixed with powdered mollusks. On the picture Clamato is mixed with ice-cold beer (Texas-style).
The Bloody Caesar is a spicy drink made of Clamato juice, vodka, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce and a dash of oregano, poured over ice, served with a celery stick and a slice of lime. I like this cocktail with tiger prawns in it. A complete meal (if you have two or more)!
Invented in California in 1969, The Bloody Caesar became very popular in Canada where it still is the #1 selling cocktail. In fact, more than 200 million Mott´s Clamato Caesars are sold every year.
