The Caesar
The Caesar
Now, if you are a Canadian you know what this drink is! (And it’s not a Bloody Mary!)
It is…
…and it’s virtually unknown, and not consumed outside our borders!
First a little history! (collected from Wikipedia) This delicious drink was invented in my city in 1969! As a matter of fact, May 13 is Caesar Day here. It’s delicious! Now don’t get weirded out by the ingredients!!
The Caesar
Ingredients
- 1 oz Vodka you can leave this out if you want a virgin Caesar
- 2 dashes of Tabasco Sauce
- 3 dashes of salt & pepper
- 4 dashes of Worcestershire sauce
- 4 oz Motts Clamato Juice
Instructions
- Rim a glass with celery salt.
- Then combine all ingredients in a fancy glass. Fancy is good.
- Garnish with celery.
- Sip away!

Caesar Recipe Tips:
- Now what is Clamato Juice you ask? It’s a mixture of clam and tomato juices, made by Motts. Weird, I know. But so, so good!
- We like to use celery salt instead of plain salt, both in the drink and on the rim.
Another great drink with Clamato, is Beer & Clam!
Clamato juice with beer is the best! This is my most fave alcoholic drink evah! Just pour a beer in a glass, and add 3-4 oz Clamato! Yeeeuumm!
Is it Happy Hour yet! 😉
I’ll have to save this recipe for my Fella ~ he’s a huge Caesar fan! Funny you mention that it’s not a drink known outside Canada. We were in Seattle a few months ago and my daughter ordered one. After an attempt at describing the drink, they gave her a Bloody Mary. Definitely NOT the same thing!
Cheers!!

Learn something new every day! I had no idea that my beloved Caesar was Canadian. So yummy! Thanks for posting – everyone should be privy to the joy that is the Caesar. Hail Caesar!

I had no idea this was a Canadian drink! I’ll have to have a Caesar and some Smarties and celebrate being a Canadian!

That sounds very, um, interesting 🙂 I love a bloody mary but I’m a little worried about clamato. But, I ate some crazy stuff recently so I’ll have to try this!
Clamato + beer is the ONLY way to have a red beer -YUMMY!
I never knew it had a name, but this drink IS consumed outside of Canada. It has quite a following in the Philadelphia, PA, area. OK, by “following” I mean me and my family at least. I highly recommend it and now know it has a real name other than Clamatty Mary! I am one if its biggest fans.
I have to share: my dad invented, as far as I know, a non-alcoholic drink that he calls “The Bu-mato Cocktail.” It is a mixture of buttermilk and tomato juice. He would probably like it with Clamato juice, too. 🙂
I LOVE all the comments!
Anonymous – love the Clamatty Mary – too funny!
and
Mlissabeth – Buttermilk & Tomato Juice! Wow, might have to try it…not sure! 😉
