I’m a fan of Brunch. I’m not a breakfast person during the week, so eating breakfast foods during the lunch hour on the weekends is pretty swell. Add a mimosa or Bloody Mary and I’m in the zone. Marlow’s Tavern in Winter Park has added a full à la carte brunch menu on Saturday and Sunday. My first visit was very enjoyable and the food was great.
The extensive Bloody Mary bar at Marlow’s Tavern, so many choices.
During brunch hours on Sunday, the Bloody Mary bar takes over the enclosed patio bar area. There was every component imaginable to make a delicious Bloody Mary from scratch or somewhat scratch.
The helpful staff guides you through the process table-side, but the signage is helpful!
After choosing your vodka and rim seasoning, start with a base of plain tomato juice, V8 or one of several premade Bloody Mary mixers. From there, add some savory spice with garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, crushed red pepper and more.
Pipettes of Worcestershire sauce allow the addition of your perfect amount of savory goodness.
Pipettes of Worcestershire sauce, bottles of hot sauce and fresh horseradish finish the makings for the perfect Bloody. Then it’s on to the garnish section! So many fresh and pickled veggies to skewer and finally, several types of regular and stuffed olives.
Old Bay rim, my from scratch family recipe Bloody Mary with lots of horseradish, Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce and a garden of veggies to garnish. Blue cheese stuffed olives were great!
The perfect Bloody Mary? Yep. The Bloody Mary fixins bar is available for $2.00, in addition to the price of the vodka. My friend and I enjoyed the house vodka, for $6.95 (+ $2.00) which was a generous pour of Smirnoff. Premium and ultra premium brands are also available. On my visit I was informed that the Bloody Mary Bar will soon include premium garnish items like bacon and cocktail shrimp. Thinking I may need a small plate for my next trip through the Marlow’s Tavern Bloody Mary fixins bar.
