UPDATE: The tour was a success. Read all about it!
As we hinted earlier this week, the first ever Mission Mission Bloody Mary Tour will be taking place this Saturday. We’re tentatively scheduling to start at noon, and the first stop will be none other than the 500 Club to sample Rachel’s famous bacon bloody mary (pictured)! The schedule will go something like this:
- 500 Club
- Elixir
- Zeitgeist
- Bender’s
- Pop’s
If any of you would like to join us in order to collaborate, you are more than welcome! We plan on staying at each spot for about 30-45 minutes, which is plenty of time to enjoy one bloody mary comfortably before heading over to the next location. We’re going to have scorecards to help rate them all according to a variety of pertinent categories, so hopefully every bartender will be on their A game!
This is going to happen rain or shine, so bring umbrellas and stuff if you have to! A nice vodka and tomato-fueled romp across the neighborhood!
Also, since Argus, Thieves, and the Attic all seem to have their special bloody marys on Sundays, they will have to wait until the Second MM Bloody Mary Tour (which will probably happen in about a month or less, actually). Nonetheless, there will be plenty of delicious bloody marys to go around!
See you on Saturday at noon!

holy shit!!! this sounds amazing. A chance to stalk bloggers and drink the greatest of drinks!! I will be out of town but I am looking forward to your second BM tour. HYUK!
Not including Kilowatt is a huge mistake.
Rachel’s bloody mary is THE BEST. Hands down.
I will be there undercover.
So exciting, though it occurs to me that I may not be able to handle 5 drinks.
I’ll try not to embarrass myself.
I’mma be there just to integrate this beyotch! Woo hoo!
You might want to cross POPS off your list as we aren’t open untill 4pm on Saturday’s…I work the Sunday morning shift (12-4) which is when the bacon-bloody Mary is available…definitely keep that in mind for round 2!
noted!
Jeff at Dirty Thieves on Sundays after 5pm…its like a small salad on your rim…wait that didn’t sound right.

Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday! We’ll have the results ready soon!
