Classic Caesar Cocktail
Dive into the refreshing and savory world of the Classic Caesar Cocktail, a true Canadian treasure that tantalizes the palate with its perfect harmony of flavors. This iconic drink combines crisp vodka with the briny richness of Clamato juice, a unique blend of tomato and clam juices, creating a delightful umami experience. The zesty kick of hot sauce and the depth of Worcestershire sauce elevate this cocktail to a new level, making it an ideal companion for brunch or a cozy evening gathering. Garnished with a vibrant lime wedge and a crisp celery stalk, the Caesar not only looks stunning but also delivers a burst of flavor with every sip. Legend has it that this cocktail was crafted in Calgary in 1969 by bartender Walter Chell, who sought to create a drink that would embody the essence of Canadian cuisine. Since then, the Caesar has become a beloved staple, often enjoyed as a hangover remedy or a refreshing start to the day.
