Instructions
Step 1 : Priming the Glass.
Before anything else, prepare the vessel. On a plate, spread out some celery salt. Take the lime wedge and glide it along the rim of your glass, then dip the rim into the celery salt. This isn’t purely for aesthetics—you’ll relish that salty rim with every sip. Once prepped, fill the glass with ice cubes.
Step 2 : Crafting the Potion.
Now comes the critical part: assembling the drink. Begin by pouring in 2 ounces of vodka. This cocktail doesn’t play around, so be generous. Next, add 4 dashes of Worcestershire sauce for that savory kick. Follow it with 2 dashes of hot sauce—or more, if you crave fire. Top the glass with Clamato juice. Give it a subtle stir to blend the ingredients—no need for aggressive shaking here, we’re aiming for a smooth finish.
Step 3 : The Grand Finale.
If you desire extra flavor, sprinkle a bit more celery salt into the mix. Now, for the exciting part—garnishing. Insert the celery stick, but don’t stop there. Let your creativity flow: pickled beans, olives, crispy bacon, even a plump shrimp. The Caesar is known for over-the-top garnishes, so go wild. And, of course, finish it off with a lime wedge for a burst of citrus.
