Fill a large wine glass with ice.
Add tomato juice, then remainder of ingredients.
Stir and garnish with wedge of lime.
Virgin Mary is best served immediately after mixing. Pre-mixed base keeps refrigerated up to 24 hours; add ice and serve fresh.
A Virgin Mary is alcohol-free, while a Bloody Mary contains vodka. Both share the same tomato juice and spice base.
Mix the base in advance, but add ice and pour into glasses just before serving to prevent dilution.
Add a pinch of salt or a small splash of tomato juice to round out the acidity from lemon juice.
Celery stalk, lime wedge, cherry tomato, olive, or a lemon wheel are traditional options.
Heat level depends on Tabasco amount. Start with 2 drops and adjust to taste for mild to medium spice.
