Cocktail Description

A sophisticated cousin to the Bloody Mary, the Bull Shot offers a savory, umami-rich experience that defies conventional cocktail expectations.

This robust drink combines the clean canvas of Ketel One vodka with rich beef bouillon for a hearty base, brightened by fresh lemon juice and deepened with the complex flavors of Worcestershire and hot pepper sauce. Its savory profile delivers a satisfying balance of salt, spice, and acidity, with the celery salt rim providing an aromatic complement to each sip. Perfect for weekend brunches or as a hair-of-the-dog remedy, this cocktail makes an excellent companion to eggs Benedict, steak and eggs, or any rich breakfast fare. The Bull Shot also pairs surprisingly well with steakhouse classics or charcuterie boards when served as an evening aperitif. While it requires several ingredients, the straightforward shake-and-strain preparation makes it accessible for home bartenders with basic equipment.
