About

Wake up brunch there is a new Mary in town! The buttons in the drink and the sugar, salt, button combo on the glasses’ rims will be enough ‘hair of the dog’ for anyone!

A Bloody Button Mary is a twist on the traditional Bloody Mary, and while it isn’t too different in the basic ingredients it does stray in its construction and even this is subtle. What isn’t subtle is the exotic ‘kick’ you get from the Szechuan button.
