Maki Mary

Made with fresh tomatillo water, this vibrant green Bloody gets its heat from both wasabi and Green Jalapeño Tabasco. Yuzu kosho, a fermented Japanese chili paste, gives the cocktail a delightful hint of funk. We like to use a small batch clam broth from Maine in the mix, but any clam broth will do. Though it is, of course, an eye-opening brunchtime cocktail, it’s also great with sushi, teriyaki, tempura, or even steak. This recipe makes enough for four drinks.
