CULTURE | FANCY A TIPPLE? | Bull Shot
After a day out on the range, one finds oneself cold, thirsty and hungry all at the same time. As those who well know me can attest, I make for rather unpleasant company when in this state. I need a bull shot.This is a drink not dissimilar to a bloody mary but far more satisfying at this time of year. As with all cocktails, this beef consommé drink is best consumed freshly made, however, the clever prep will have some in a flask back at the shooting brake for a tipple after a day engaged in whatever outdoor pursuit happens to be your choice (wink, wink).
