Bloody Maria

1/4 cup fresh pico de gallo
1 1/2 cups tomato juice or V8
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 jiggers (3 ounces) tequila
Garnish with cilantro sprig


Blend first 3 ingredients in blender. Stir in tequila. Pour into glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish with cilantro. Makes 2.

I make this to go with Mexican food when I already HAVE the pico on hand.
(2 cups diced tomatoes, 1/4 cup minced cilantro, 2 or 3 finely chopped jalapenos, 1/2 small onion, minced, 1 tsp. lime juice)
