Clam Digger

This is another good cocktail for a Sunday brunch, when alcoholic drinks can be too soporific and you end up wasting the rest of the day, but you still want something to wake up the taste buds and set them tingling.

INGREDIENT:

• 10-12 cracked ice cubes
• Tabasco sauce
• Worcestershire sauce
• 4 measures tomato juice
• 4 measures clam juice
• ¼ tsp horseradish sauce
• Celery salt and freshly ground
• Black pepper
• Celery stick, wedge of lime, to decorate

METHOD:

1. Put 4-6 cracked ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. Dash the Tabasco sauce and Worcestershire sauce over the ice, pour in the tomato juice and clam juice and add the horseradish sauce. Shake vigorously until a frost forms.

2. Fill a chilled Collins glass with cracked ice cubes and strain the cocktail over them. Season to taste with celery salt and pepper and decorate with a celery stick and lime wedge.
