Bloody Maria with Carrot-Papaya “Sangrita”
Bartender Ivy Mix, owner of the tequila cocktail bar Leyenda in Brooklyn, bases her take on a Bloody Maria (a Bloody Mary made with tequila instead of vodka) on the Sangrita, a traditionally tomato-based Mexican drink that often accompanies shots of tequila. Mix’s version features carrot and papaya juice for a light and fruity accent, making her cocktail ideal for brunch or mid-afternoon sipping.
