Directions
Although not technically a food, the Caesar cocktail often has enough accompaniments to be considered a light lunch. This iconic Canadian cocktail is typically vodka based, but sometimes contains gin or tequila. It is topped with Clamato juice and served in a celery-salt rimmed glass. Garnishes include celery sticks, bacon strips, pickles, olive skewers, pickled onions, hard-boiled eggs, seafood, onion rings – sometimes even a mini hamburger or ribs!
You can use any vodka and change the ratio depending on how hot you like it but don’t skip the Clamato juice.
If you want to kick it up a notch throw in a tablespoon of horseradish, it’s not the classic recipe but it’s so delicious.
