Kimchi + Sesame = Delicious Fermented Bloody Maria

We got inspired by this Tasmanian chef, Luke Burgess, who seems to have perfected the fermented Bloody Mary. What could make it better? Bloody Maria mix, of course!

  • 2 cups jarred kimchi brine
  • 2 cups spicy pickle brine
  • 2 tbsp. light brown sugar

  • 1⁄2 cup (or more) vodka
  • Toasted sesame oil, to garnish

Instructions

Whisk jarred kimchi and spicy pickle brines, light brown sugar, and kosher salt in a large pitcher until sugar dissolves. Whisk in clam juice, Bloody Maria mix and vodka; chill 1 hour before serving.
