Best Bloody Marys Nashville - 2018

From tequila spiked beverages at Saint Anejo to curried cocktails from Chauhan, and even a green bloody mary from The Mockingbird, each bar put its own unique spin on this classic drink.

The first ever Nashville Bloody Mary Festival was a Sunday Fun Day filled with booze, bloody marys, and of course, our Drunken Tomato mascot! I had an absolute blast judging 14 of Nashville's best bloody marys, and I would whole heartedly recommend every single one of them. That's definitely not something I say about all these festivals *ahem* guy with the fish sauce bloody who shall remain unnamed.
