Really unique flavor, a little offensive at first but it rounds out nicely. If you want to try a wholly new flavored Bloody, give this a whirl.

On second thought (now that I'm through it), it was pretty hard to finish. It's just way to acidic. I mean, c'mon, ounce and a quarter of lemon juice per drink? Is that a typo? Try it with only a 1/4 oz and you'd be fine.
