We always called Bloody's made with Clamato juice "Clam Diggers". As for the sodium issue - it's pretty tough to get around a sodium load if you're having Bloody Mary's. Low sodium tomato juice is just gross. And by the time I'm done adding the skewer of olive, cheese, pickle and summer sausage, the juice is the least of my sodium worries! Famous Daves Devil's Spit Bloody Mary Mix is awesome, by the way.

The only thing bette than a Bloody Mary is a nice cold Caesar made with Clamato juice, worcestshire sauce, hot sauce and all the fixings. We usually include a pickle spear, garlic stuffed olive, celery, pickled mushroom, pickled asparagus and a slice of lime! Hmmm Hmmm Good!

I've been looking for a good bloody mary mix. This is a great way to do something different for a BBQ!

Beefamato Juice makes it better than just plain tomato juice

Tabasco makes the PERFECT Bloody Mary mix...so perfect it tastes like my homemade ones! The only thing you need to add is the celery! Not too spicy, not overly salty tasting! This makes it easier than mixing it all yourself! Fresh Market is the only place that I have found that carries it. CHEERS!

I think you forgot dill sauce. Milani makes a great dill sauce. Green onions are very good too.
