Uncle Merle's Bloody Mary image

I had a very good friend who was not related to me, but everyone called him "Uncle Merle". He gave me this recipe and made me promise not to give it to anyone until he passed away. Uncle Merle is gone now, but his recipe lives on.-Ronald Roth, Three Rivers, Michigan

This Bloody Mary is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I can see how others might enjoy it. I think I'll try making it again with less horseradish next time.

This Bloody Mary is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try adding less simple syrup next time.
