During the Thanksgiving and Christmas Seasons there is always a spiraled ham making a
debut at my home. (It can magically appear at other times too.)
So for my first Month of Marys post, I have chosen to use the Ham as my special part of
the Mary. Typically I attach both cherries and pineapple to the ham while it’s baking.
This gives a little sweet to the heartiness of the ham.
For this Mary, I muddle half a pineapple ring with two tablespoons of ham juice. Then I
add two ounces of Kimo Sabe Reposado Mezcal . The smokiness of the Mezcal blends so
wonderfully with the ham. To this I add one tablespoon of juice from Mt Olive Bread
and Butter pickles and a little ice and fill the glass with Cutwater Bloody Mary mix.
Garnish with a hunk of ham, the other half of the pineapple ring, a pickle and a cherry.
It’s Holiday Goodness in a Glass. #OhMyYum.
