A savory mixed drink combining vodka, cold beef bouillon, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. It's served cold and known for its bold, meaty flavor profile.
Cold bouillon is traditional and keeps the drink refreshing. Warm bouillon will dilute faster and change the texture; chill it first for best results.
Soy sauce or tamari in equal measure will add similar umami depth, though the flavor profile will shift slightly toward saltiness.
Typically served chilled in a glass; ice is optional depending on whether you prefer it colder or less diluted.
Savory appetizers, cured meats, oysters, or brunch fare like bacon and eggs complement its umami profile.
