Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Shake vigorously with ice for 10-15 seconds to chill the drink and create proper dilution that balances the savory elements.
Use fresh carrot juice within 48 hours of opening for maximum flavor and nutritional benefit.
Rim the glass with celery salt before pouring to enhance the savory presentation and taste.
Prepare a carrot and pickle garnish platter ahead of time for fast assembly when serving multiple guests.

Substitutions

Carrot juice → beet juice or carrot-beet blend (adds earthiness and color depth)
Vodka → gin or white rum (changes the spirit base while maintaining the savory profile)
Pickle juice → hot sauce or sriracha (increases heat and umami kick)
Celery salt → Old Bay seasoning or smoked salt (shifts the savory profile)

Storage & make-ahead

Bunny Mary is best served immediately after shaking. Pre-batched liquid (without ice) keeps refrigerated in a sealed pitcher for up to 4 hours; shake with ice and serve fresh.

Common Questions

Can I make a non-alcoholic version of the Bunny Mary?

Yes, simply omit the vodka and increase carrot juice to 6 oz for a virgin Bunny Mary mocktail with the same flavor profile.

What's the best way to get fresh carrot juice?

A cold-press juicer yields the best quality, but store-bought fresh carrot juice works well if you use it within a few days of opening.

How far in advance can I prepare the Bunny Mary?

Mix all ingredients except ice in a pitcher up to 4 hours ahead; shake with ice and serve immediately for best flavor and texture.

Can I scale this recipe for a crowd?

Yes, multiply all ingredient quantities by the number of servings and prepare a large batch in a pitcher, then shake individual servings or use a cocktail shaker in batches.
