The Bloody Boar

Years ago, we had a Boar's Head restraunt in our city, which closed about 1985. I recall their signature drink was their Bloody Boar, a spiced up bloody mary.

Anyone willing to share the recipe or direct me to someone who can ?

Thanks

I worked at on for years. The secret ingredient was beef bouillion. We seasoned the hotness with worcestershire and tabasco...sometimes horseradish

seems like it would be a bit salty with beef bullion... Though overall it does sound tasty!

It is probably a "Bullshot", use strong, cold beef bouillon. Use your basic bloody mary recipe, substitute bouillon for tomato juice, spice it up as your taste desires. I always like the addition of a bit of horseradish.

When we lived in the Virgin Islands one of the places we used to spend time in was a Charlotte Amalie bar and restaurant called Papagallo. One day, while filling in for the regular barmaid on the outside patio a friend, La Contessa del Bouston, also known as Riki, had a customer order a Bullshot. Not an experienced barmaid (it was her first day), nor an experienced drinker, Riki asked what a Bullshot was. When told she went in search of some beef stock. She couldn't find any beef stock, but she did find a can of chicken stock. Reasoning that lots of people like chicken, Riki went ahead and made the Bullshot using chicken stock instead of beef. The surprised customer allowed as how it wasn't bad. Thus was born in the U.S. Virgin Islands on a sunny day along Garden Street, the drink that immediately became known throughout the Caribbean as the Cockshot.

The Montelone Hotel in New Orleans was the first place I ever had these. Although it was 35 years ago, the drink made with beef boullion and tomato juice was called a "Bloody Bull". A "BullShot" was made without the tomato juice. Both good morning-after concoctions.
