Love 'em! However, I usually only have them at 9:30 in the morning when we're either 'camping' in the mountains or are recovering Saturday morning during the annual summer solstice party at the river.
Fun facts about Caesars!
The Caesar, also known as the Bloody Caesar, was developed to celebrate the opening of Marco's Italian restaurant at the Calgary Inn in 1969.
Bartender and mixologist Walter Chell spent three months creating this new cocktail. Challenged to create a beverage that went well with Mediterranean food, Walter Chell mixed flavours of Spaghetti Vongole (spaghetti with clams), with lime, Worcestershire sauce and celery salt to create this new unique taste.
It typically contains vodka, Clamato (a proprietary blend of tomato juice and clam broth), hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce, and is served with ice in a large, celery salt-rimmed glass, typically garnished with a stalk of celery and wedge of lime. They're even more delicious with pickled beans.

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, 'Where have I gone wrong?' Then a voice says to me, 'This is going to take more than one night.'
