Peanut butter and jelly. Chips and dip. Bloody Marys and football. It just works. Whether you’re a diehard fan of the sport or you’re here for the snacks, football playoffs call for game day drinks. And you simply can’t go wrong with a Bloody Mary setup while your team goes for the Hail Mary.
Every party needs a game plan, and Demitri’s Bloody Mary mix is your secret weapon to make sure you can kick back and relax, too. Our seasonings are made with high-quality ingredients, just like you’d use if you were making it from scratch: Lea and Perrins Worcestershire, freshly grated horseradish, lemon juice, black pepper, a hint of celery seed, and a few extra spices to balance it all out. It’s the seasoning that bartenders reach for because it tastes like it was made from scratch—but without the effort of tinkering around to get it just right. That’s key when you’re serving a big group and a major time-saver.
We love providing different Bloody Mary bases so that guests can customize their own. The Meet Demitri’s Kit is perfect for hosting with all four flavors of our award-winning seasonings: Classic, Extra Horseradish, Chilies & Peppers, and Chipotle Habanero. You can also make a pitcher without vodka for more options—from keeping it alcohol-free to adding tequila for a Bloody Maria or gin for a Red Snapper.
And when it comes time to garnish, you’re in luck! The classic football snacks also make excellent garnish options for an over-the-top Bloody. Jalapeño poppers, a charcuterie board, pigs in a blanket, wings, mini meatballs—basically anything that can be put on a skewer is fair game.

Serves 8
Ingredients:
- Lime, cut into wedges
- Demitri’s Original or Bacon Rimshot Rim Salt
- 32 ounces tomato juice
- 3-5 tablespoons Demitri’s Bloody Mary Seasoning
- 16 ounces quality vodka (we like Ketel One in our Bloodys)
- Ice
Directions:
- Moisten half of the rim of all your glasses with a lime wedge, then press each into a saucer of Demitri’s Rimshot. Half-rims or “smiles” that go down the side of the glass are nice because someone can get a sip with or without salt.
- Combine Demitri’s Bloody Mary Seasoning with tomato juice, vodka, and ice in a large pitcher. Use a spoon to gently combine all the ingredients.
- Pour a serving into each glass.
- Garnish, squeeze lime on top, and enjoy!
Enjoy playoff season and happy Bloody Mary drinking!
