Bull Shot Cocktail Recipe

This drink is either a lover’s or a loathing’s delight - you will either love it or hate it — although it has devoted fans. A classic example of this is found in Detroit, where it is often credited to the Caucus Club. Though it was a big hit throughout the 1970s (and even made an appearance in “A Clockwork Orange” in 1971), the bull shot is making a surprise comeback as drinkers are looking to get that retro vibe.

What is this drink? A bloody mary can be made with beef broth or consommé if the tomato juice is replaced with beef broth or consommé. Just like your favorite brunch drink, it can be spiced and flavored to your liking. You might even want to join bull shot fans who enjoy it warm in the winter. The experience is similar to drinking spiked soup in that regard.
