Company We Review : Trader Joe’s Bloody Mary Mix 

Trader Joe’s Bloody Mary Mix Review

From the Website: “With tangy tomato purée, briny clam juice, and a savory spice blend, Trader Joe’s Bloody Mary Mixer stands up to any homemade version. Simply add vodka, ice, and garnish with abandon to recreate this classic brunch beverage.”

Serious Eats listed it as a top ten pick (but they also listed Tabasco and McLures) they had this to say:

Trader Joe’s Bloody Mary Mixer with Clam Juice This mix smells super-tomatoey and there’s a ton of celery flavor. It’s thick, rich, and a little on the sweet side, but it’s not spicy at all. It would be a great starting point, though—just add hot sauce and a squeeze of fresh lemon and you’d probably be good to go (a little fresh horseradish, of course, wouldn’t hurt.)

Onto the ingredients: 

Trader Joe’s Bloody Mary Mix Ingredients

POUR THE MIX

Thickness:   Medium-thin

Flavor: Mild. Mike thought it a cross between V-8 juice and tomato soup. Yeah, that’s about right.

Which Beer Today? SAYzon’ du Jhardon’

We use all natural ingredients and ferment them to give our hot sauces a unique and flavorful taste with only a fraction of the sodium other hot sauces have. They are vegan, gluten-free and preservative free.” …”THE DIFFERENCE:  What sets our hot sauce apart from everybody else is that we have low sodium! Other hot sauces use salt as a flavoring, and we use the all-natural fermentation process to give our hot sauce the great flavor with very little sodium!”

Last Episode/ Review: Hunt Hot Sauces

Explain Word of the Day

Word of the Day:”Mix”

New*** Obscure profanity: The Mierdas Touch

The ability to turn everything one touches to shit.

The phrase is a mashup of the King Midas myth of being cursed that everything he touched turned to gold and mierdas, which is the Spanish word for shit.

There is some controversy as to whether the object touched was already a piece of shit with an exceedingly thin veneer of gold plating, where the Mierdas Touch serves only to reveal the subject’s true nature versus the Mierdas Touch actually turning any object into shit, even if it was previously unblemished.

The doctor was beloved by all until he was touched the Mierdas Touch, wherein, it came to light that the doctor was constantly drunk, mis-prescribed drugs, and belittled underlings.

Today’s Garnish: Pickled eggs….

Company We Review : Jimmy’s Luv. “Shake the Bottle, Wake the Luv! Enjoy with friends.”

Company Story: “Jimmy Luv is first and foremost, a Bloody Mary lover. As he experimented with his recipe Jimmy’s passion was to develop the best Bloody Mary possible. Once he created the exact mix of ingredients to satisfy his own high taste standards, Jimmy wanted to share his refined blend with anyone that sought a fantastic Bloody Mary.”

Company We Review : Hunt Sauce Company

Small Batch! Eg 9/10 Hand marked

Texas Heat you can’t beat! We are a small batch hot sauce company based out of Austin, Texas. Sourced locally – Farm to Bottle

Company Story: “Our sauce is special.

With more emphasis on flavor rather than just heat alone. Many people miss the point when making hot sauce, they focus more on the ‘hot’ rather than the ‘sauce’

It takes two to tango.

Not only is the flavor and heat more unique than anybody else’s out there, but the time and dedication that goes into each batch of sauce is also what makes it special.

Each step of the process is planned out and executed without taking shortcuts. Achieving superior flavor that isn’t sour or too ‘vinegary’ with a long-lasting shelf life is tough to do. Not only that, the sauce isn’t ‘ready to sell’ until the flavor and consistency are EXACTLY how I’ve planned. Trust me, the process is also quite painful. I’d say as close to ‘blood sweat & tears’ as you can get.

Company Story: “The Pepper Crusaders were hot sauce heroes on a mission to save the world from blandness. They rode across the land with their steeds and bottles of sauce, facing rival hot sauce makers and armies of picky eaters. When a village was under attack by tasteless invaders, the Pepper Crusaders sprung into action, brandishing their hot sauce like swords. But when the invaders tasted their sauces, they were converted and joined the crusade. The Pepper Crusaders rode off into the sunset, determined to unite the fight against bland food everywhere. Join the crusade!”
