If I was a betting girl, I might be thinking of a rematch for the title game between Alabama and Clemson. Sure looks like odds are… both will win their conference championships.
But….you never know…
Therefore I will share two recipes.
I am thinking Bloody Marys to celebrate the SEC Championship. In my Alabama tailgating painting, I included Bloody Marys in honor of the Red (Crimson Tide).
Avid Bama fan, Ken Yarbrough’s Bloody Mary recipe…a little twist with the red wine…

Notes
Ken says, "The recipe for this delectable game day libation is based on 12 servings, but I tend to get a bit liberal on some of the ingredients (life's too short to be perfect). ROLL TIDE!!"By Ken Yarbrough via KathyMillerTime

Garden & Gun’s Bloody Mary from Pinterest
In my Tailgating In The Swamp painting for Florida I painted the state fruit…Florida Oranges.
But Florida grows tomatoes too and one of the best Bloody Marys I ever tasted is served in a bar on the strip…The Salty Dog Saloon…
I have secured the recipe thanks to a sweet server. She wrote the recipe down for me on a paper napkin. You will have to experiment with amounts…She didn’t go that far!

Would have never thought about adding cabernet. Will have to try that soon!
Interesting isn’t it? Ken’s special touch.
