How to make The Caesar Cocktail - Kind of like a Bloody Mary...but better.

- I tell ya, I have the best viewers/fans on UA-cam. The crew and I thank you for all of the kind words after I reported I had the flood. Thankfully we keep most of the show's props and gear high enough off the ground that most of it was saved.
We're cleaned up and back in gear! This one had been in the works for a while. We finished shooting it this week. The Caesar! It's Canada's most popular cocktail. Some say it's also Canada's official cocktail. If you don't know what I'm talking about, think Bloody Mary. What's the Dif? Well Clamato juice for starters. The Caesar is not only a great drink, it could even be considered a meal due to its ridiculous garnishes that have evolved over the years!

This is my new favorite channel! I love the effort and bar lore! Thank you so much; I can't wait to get into your podcast!
Glad you’re enjoying the channel!
Just made hubby a Caesar with celery stick and a skewer of Mundare sausage, garlic stuffed olives, pickles and radishes from a local Hutterite colony. So good
You must be from the Edmonton area. I’ve relocated from Sherwood Park to Australia.
Sounds great!
I love it, a meal with my ceaser. Sir where's your bar.
It’s a mystery wrapped in a riddle. But I will say I am about an hour away from Toronto, Canada.
@@BarTalkCocktails TO THE BATMOBILE!! SET KOURSE TO CANADA!!!
In Baltimore, there's popular variation on a Caesar/Bloody Mary that uses crab meat and old bay instead of hot sauce and shrimp. Very delicious, and quite an unusual experience
Sounds interesting!
That sounds freaking delicious!
Yep, I can second that, I am from the Baltimore area and we use Old Bay in our Bloody Mary's. In fact in my family we have been using Clamato since at least the 1980's. My father taught me how to make this cocktail for him during football games on Sundays. I was only 12 or so and could not have one with vodka, but I appreciated the virgin variety.
Im from DC whats the Baltimore cocktail called?
What an incredible guy! also 10/10 on the Caesar!
Thanks! Hope you give it a try.
That story from the beginning made my evening!
It certainly didn’t make my evening! Glad you enjoyed it. Ha.
I visited Edmonton, Alberta recently from Chicago and when I ordered a Bloody Mary I got offered a Caesar instead, very very similar and honestly was damn good. Found out the main difference was Clamato juice instead of straight tomato.
Hispanics here in the states use Clamato to make micheladas with beer, another good drink lol
Another amazing episode
Thanks for tuning in!
I just discovered your channel today! You have so much class and style while making drinks. I love the history; and I love Caesars. I love that you explain the best products for each drink! My new favorite channel 😁
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing! Hope you keep checking back, lots more on the way. Cheers
Just ordered ingredients. I am in the desert of southern Arizona. I am going to get my Canada on.
Yeah! Hope ya like it... eh.
Enjoying a Mott's Pickled Bean Camato Caesar right now with celery sticks right now. SO refreshing and spicy, so much more than my other favorite, Bloody Mary. Gets those taste buds reacting in such a great way!
I want one!
This looks so delicious! Might want to visit Canada soon
You won’t be disappointed, it’s a beautiful country. Cheers!
This guy would be great to have at every party !!! Great fun video and i learned a bunch . Thanks for a great video .
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lol wow. You turned that from a drink into a lite lunch or before dinner snack. Very cool.
Bonus! Thanks for watching Kerri, cheers :)
Caesars... it's what's for dinner... or breakfast. As a hangover cure, garnish with a hardboiled egg, 3 bacon strips, a skewer of greasy seasoned pan fried potatoes, and buttered toast.
Very underrated channel
I know right! Ha. Thanks for checking it out, keep checking back, cheers!
It looks like all's well. Glad to see you again Bruce.
Thanks Shane, back to business! Cheers
Fantastic
Thanks!
Good one! Glad to see you survived the flood. God bless
Thanks Greg! The damage wasn’t horrible it was the cleanup that was a pain in the ass. Cheers!
Beautiful video I love Caesar’s and I loved watching you talk and make one
Thanks so much for watching! Cheers
Thanks for letting me know about Walter's mix! I once loved Clamato, and then they started to put all the junk into it. Love this recipe! I want this seafood party in a glass!
Hail Ceasar!
You’re welcome Jane, fresh is always best! Cheers!
That Ceasar looks amazing, a meal with your drink, sign me up!
Give it a go! Thanks for tuning in. Cheers
You are a legend
Awe thanks 😊
This is awesome
Give it a go it’s great!
As a young man in the tomato business (I was 19 in 1988) my father sent me to visit our major supplier in San Quintin , Baja California Norte, Mex.. The San Quintin Bay is well known for it clear, cold Pacific Ocean water that produces excellent clams and oysters. To start one of our luncheons at a restaurant on the bay, we were served a version of the Caesar. This one happened to feature finely chopped fresh clams from the local beaches. More than 30 years later I can still remember how delicious that cocktail was! I enjoyed your video and learned some things too....thanks!
Thank you for sharing, sounds like a delightful cocktail. Cheers
Glad to see Bruce make's a Cesaer the exact same way I do, I must be doing it right! Matt & Steve's rimmer really does the job and who doesn't love an extreme bean!
Can’t go wrong with this one.
😳😳😳😳 what a recipe !!! Never saw nor heard this drink in France.... thanks Master Bruce for your teaching....Hail Caesar !!!
You’re very welcome, give it a try!
Okay..... I gotta say it. "I love you man!"
I've been making these drinks for forty years and never knew they were ,Ceasars!" Thank you!
Hey thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers 🥂
Super entertaining presentation! 😂
Thank you for watching and writing in. Cheers!
Finally....respect for the caeser
Hail Caesar? Ha.
Thanks for tuning in. Cheers
Sir honestly speaking, how I become like you😇🙏 GOD bless you always sir.
Ha, you can do better! Thank you for watching, cheers!
That is a proper garnish! Recently been making them with gin or moonshine instead of vodka. Interesting twist
I've tried gin and I like it but, I've never tried moonshine in a Caesar. It sounds intriguing. Is it fortified Moonshine? Recently, I was gifted a couple bottles but they're only 40%.
BarTalk&Cocktails just the 40% moonshine. Basically in my area many local distilleries are selling young whisky as moonshine since if it is not aged a minimum of 3 years they cannot call it whisky. Some moonshine are unaged(clear) some are aged months in a cask. They are a bright and sharp sip with no oak but the spice of the grain comes through as it does in whisky. Real lovely with a rye based moonshine. As the spicyness enhances the drink well and cuts through the tomato.
One of my favorite meal/drinks! Love your enthusiasm!
It’s definitely a good one. 😋
if anyone wants a caesar that is similar to the one he built here, just go to the "Canadian Brewhouse" when you're in Canada, they make their Caesars with an entire meal on-top of it like this
That blooper at the end was pretty good, lol
Ha. I gotta start working out!
Just had my first caesar tonight, from a Toronto bar! Hell of a sodium bomb but im sooooo in love, hence here on youtube searching for recipes! Thanks for your video sir you make it looks so fun and cool 🤍
Thanks for for tuning in, cheers!
My favorite drink
It’s a good one for sure! Cheers and thanks for watching!
Haha sorry Bruce i laughed so hard when you told the story of the hot sauce in your eye lol that's something that would happen to me haha! Great video really enjoyed it!
It’s funny now but it was definitely not funny at the time. Ah well, shit happens as they say. Have a great weekend Joe!
Oh I'm sure it burned like heck!! Thanks Bruce you too!
I like the sound of the Lime version. Haven’t seen it myself but I’d love to try it. Big fan of Lime.
Looks like an entire dinner on top of a drink. LOL
Fabulous. I love this cocktail. I am making some for my Canadian friends, but do not quite have all the garnishes you have here. Cheers!!
I’m sure they’ll appreciate the effort. Thanks for tuning in.
Oww, this comes to me as surprise, I lived in Vancouver for over a year, but never heard about this cocktail. My next vacation in Canada I will try one. maybe in your bar Bruce, but I want one with all these garnish hahaha, made me hungry. Cheers!
Really, that’s interesting. Besides beer the Caesar is what’s requested the most.
Looks delicious slick
It ain’t to shabby! Give it a try bud, cheers!
Wow that looks so delicious...😊
It is! Give it a try!
I will ...😊
"Good evening Mr. and Mrs. America... and all the ships at sea. Let's go to press." Or at least to the bar.
Let's go crazy and add bacon and Scallops to that one!
Sounds like a plan!
You've heard of a liquid lunch, now get ready for a liquid brunch.
Looking good to drink 🍸
It is!
How have I never seen you on here before. I like the style of your videos, I can watch and if I am multitasking then I can just listen and still not miss much. I like the tie too. I’m thinking I’m gonna subscribe to you and anyone who watches your videos and doesn’t subscribe is doomed to shitty cocktails FOREVER lol
Ha! Glad you stumbled upon the channel there’s definitely lots to catch up on. Hope you keep checking back lots more on the way. Cheers!
@@BarTalkCocktails omg, catch up XDXD
Hail Caesar!
I worked at Smuggler's Inn in Calgary during the '80s. I must have served 10,000 Caesars if not more.
I believe you!
I've actually seen Beefmato at stores a couple of years ago. I was always tempted to buy it but never did. Love Clamato alone with some club soda.
Hm that’s an interesting combination, I’ll have to give that a try sometime.
Born and raised Calgarian here about to have a caesar, while finding out it was invented in Calgary. Caesar-ception
My 1st Caesar was at Caesar's Palace, hmmmmmmmmmm, about 1978-79, awesome. Next was in Vancouver, hmmmmm not a prize winner. But, undaunted, I still make 'em and order 'em when out, AM or PM. I will try a pinch of Oregano.
Take Care eh
Ahhhh, The Ceasar!!!! It has been my favourite drink for many years. It must be terrible watching this video if you are not from Canada because you can't buy Clamato juice (to my knowledge). Walter's though, can be purchased online and sent to the United States. I used to drink Bloody Mary's because I don't like the taste of seafood. But whenever I ordered a Bloody Mary, I always got a Ceasar. I got sick and tired of sending them back and eventually loved them. The spicier the better. But when they started adding all those difference garnishes, yikes!!!! Just give me the drink, please!!! I only use Walter's Ceasar mix now (thank God they came out with this) and just add salt, pepper and lime. Fabulous!!! I will say, though, when I was in New Orleans, they make a bloody great Bloody Mary!!!! Great video, everyone!!! Hail Ceasar!!!!!
You buy Clamato in the US. It good but very unhealthy
We Do have Clamato in US. At least in Massachusetts we do. People call me gross when I have it haha.
You can get Clamato in any grocery store in the US, at least where I live...yes it's loaded with sodium lol...there's several variants of it (Original, Picante, Preparado, etc.)
i know this is an old post, but it just popped up for me.
as far as throwing shade at mott's for the clamato juice...i get it with the HFCS and other preservatives etc, but there's nothing at all wrong with msg.
the hate for it is finally waning, and for good reason. it's a very efficient and easy way to add savory to anything that can be enhanced in that way.
Pickle juice, or olive brine brightens the taste.
I really wanna try a clear Caesar (a Clearsar?) made from a spicy tomato-clam consomme, but I'm too damn lazy to do it myself. Some day, I'll throw a party and make a big batch of this consomme for the occasion, and blow everyone's minds with something that looks like a glass of water with a celery stick in it.
I’m willing to bet I’ve made over a thousand Bloody Mary’s (okay, Bloody Caesars) over the last 18 years or so. I’ve made so many that a friend watched me make one and then asked me to write down what I put in it. I told him there is probably no way you are going to have all of the ingredients, sometimes I don’t, but I wrote it down from memory (which was actually quick and easy as I make 6-8 of these a month). Here it is:
16 ounce glass - fill a third with ice and put enough vodka in to cover ice (4 ounces or so)
Fill remaining with Clamato to a half inch from top of glass
Fridge ingredients:
Sauces (a dash or two of each):
A1 thick & hearty sauce, Worcestershire sauce, wine & pepper Worcestershire sauce, coarse horseradish, tabasco, sriracha sauce, tiger sauce (spicy Asian sauce)
Juices (a dash or two of each):
Garlic pickle juice, spicy green bean juice, hot pickled asparagus juice, green olive juice
Dry spices (a shake/pinch or two of each):
Roasted red bell pepper, grated pepper, minced garlic, toasted minced onion, old bay seasoning, Montreal steak seasoning, weber roasted garlic and herb
Stir lightly and then add:
3 green olives, 1 spicy asparagus spear, 1 pickled mini corn, 3 shrimp cocktail
Also, sometimes if I have it: piece of crispy bacon and some red onion shavings
You may need to take a sip or two to make room for the end ingredients to fit
Yes, this is a sodium bomb, but the average Bloody Mary mix contains a hefty amount of salt per 4 ounce serving. I don’t go overboard with any one ingredient, just small amounts of each listed and never measure anything. I don’t do the fancy skewering of my shrimp, olives, etc. I just drop them in at the end and let the drink sit in the fridge for 10 minutes or so to let it meld (and then use a fork to poke and eat the goodies). I originally began making these to keep my girlfriend from complaining she was hungry because it always took me too long to grill. It shortly became a “thing” and now I make them every time I grill steak.
Sounds divine! Cheers
Ah, yes, the red drink for the guy who got stabbed.
Have to admit, I've enjoyed it probably more than I should have xD
Haha. Thanks for tuning in. Cheers
I do like a little half ounce of beef consume in my bloody mary, but maybe not beefmato. Great recipe!
Give it a go, it won’t disappoint.
Excellent video, I love a good ceaser. I prefer mine extra spicy I'll usually throw about 2 teaspoons of Frank's red hot and 1 table spoon of however you pronounce this (worcestershire) sauce and then add the clamato.
Sounds great. I could go for one right about now.
Love it man looks great i gotta find some clammo now. Hey whats a good brand of tonic watter?
Personally, as far as Tonic Water is concerned, I like the brand Fever-Tree. They use all natural ingredients and it tastes good. Their ingredients are Carbonated Spring Water, Fruit Sugar, Citric Acid, Natural Flavourings including Natural Quinine. The only problem is, it's expensive. They make a really good natural Ginger Beer too. Cheers!
Do you know how to put the celery stick on the side?
Awesome vid Bruce.. Have you tried a Gin Caesar?? That's my goto for Caesar!!
Yes, I have Blake and they’re good. Never with Tequila though. Ha.
My first Bloody Mary was not terrible but not my cup of tea. My first Caesar, by contrast, was excellent. A million times better than a Bloody Mary; much more depth of flavor! As an American I can say you Canadians are geniuses. Then again, my great-grandfather was from Windsor, so it must be in my blood. 😁
Agreed! You can’t go wrong with a Caesar.
i love. Wintertime in Canada. Red 7 summits.
Ugh I hate winter in Canada! Ha. At least I have my cocktails to keep me warm. Ha
Brilliant. Now add a dusting of paprika on the final product and your're golden.
Great tip!
Walters is a LANDSLIDE better than any other mixture I have tried.
Thanks for watching! Cheers
Hey Bruce, I am loving your channel. Quick question - about how much Clamato juice do you end up using?
I roughly used 8, maybe 10 oz. of clamato juice to fill up my 20 oz.glass. Cheers!
You are awesome! Thank you! @@BarTalkCocktails
OMG, i´m so hungry now .... 🤭😆🍴
How can I get that Walter's Clamato juice here in the states?
From Walter's Website you can order it online.
THAT'S ONE WHOLE MEAL! FORGET MCDONALDS!! I'M KOMING HERE!
Hell yeah!
What would you recommend subbing the Vodka with for teetotalers?
Teetotalers drink Virgin Caesars (no alcohol) It's just as tasty. Cheers!
It's also the ultimate hangover cure, hair of the dog and vitamins and stuff 😅
You got that right.
Beef stock is used to make a Bull Shot
Mmm sounds divine? Ha!
Love it. Meal in a glass. I'm British. It's usually pronounced Wooster sauce.
I doubt I could find clamato juice here but I would have a go with tomato juice.
I practiced and practiced and still kept saying it wrong... so many bloopers!
@@Lillipod1 I've seen it here and there, once in Sainsbury's and once in Waitrose. You can get it online - it's worth trying it.
New to the channel. Have you said where and what bar in Canada you still work at? Would love to visit!
It’ll have to remain a mystery for now. Ha!
Weird how the Bloody Mary became more popular in the US, but the Bloody Caesar became more popular in Canada.
I know right!?
Thanks for tuning In Craig, cheers!
I like Canada and Caesars but as for that garnish, in the words of W C Fields "If I wanted salad I would ask for it"
Lol 😂
Why dont you have a video on making the Bloody Mary?
How much would that Caesar Bloody cost in a Bar ??? Please answer ... Thanks my Genius Bar Tender ... Jim from Chicago ... You are the Best ... 👍
Here in Canada, a regular, no-frill Caesar runs about $8. A Caesar with all the trimmings would probably be $15-$20. Cheers, Chicago!
Hmmm... Needs a Hamberder and a little pig-in-a-blanket hot dog... with a bit of yellow mustard.
I'm wondering how I might get some North Carolina Bar-B-Cue to stay together on that... with a hush puppie.
Ha! Give it a try and let me know if it works out!
@@BarTalkCocktails
I've got some of the fixin's. (Still haven't figured out the Que... perhaps sliced rather than chopped?)
I'll take pictures when I get it done. Just sort of waiting to have a couple people to share (impress) with them. :)
Also thinking of beef jerky on skewers. :) :)
Try it with beef or chicken broth.
MMMMMMMMMMM! 😋😋😋
8oz of Vodka? Gimme the recipe for a Reindeer juice!
I make caesar's with v8 and a bit of bovril. Had no clue beefamato existed.
It's just a Bloody Mary then.
Beef mato doesn’t sound bad though
It’s not the greatest when you’re a vegetarian like me. Ha. Cheers!
It’s
It's a frickin' Bloody Mary for Christ's sakes - gee
Very similar. Bloody Marys feature tomato juice, while Caesars make use of clamato, a combination of clam and tomato juice.
...you're a rather JUMPY kinda fella...sooo...you getting Tabisco BackSPLASH...is HIGHLY PROBABLE
True that. Ha
@@BarTalkCocktails 😊
I'm American, but I love using 50/50 Clamato and V8 in my Bloody Mary's...I guess they're hybrid Caesars/Mary's lol...the key ingredient in mine is PICKLE JUICE!!!
You lost me at "just one drop" of Tobasco. It's about 4 dashes too short! Oh well, different strokes for different folks.
Hey, if you wanna elevate your Caesars to another level, try adding some bacon flavoured hot sauce! You can get it at Superstore; President's Choice makes it. And you can certainly be more liberal with it than "just one drop" as it's not very hot- maybe around the same level as Frank's Red Hot. Ever since trying it, I just have to add bacon hot sauce to all my Caesars, because it's so damn good! It really is an improvement on something you thought was perfected already. It's almost like a cold Manhattan-style clam chowder that you don't have to chew.
Oh, and did I mention I like bacon hot sauce in my Caesars?
Bacon flavoured hot sauce?! I’ll have to whip some up for the crew as it sounds like it’s right up their alley. Thanks for the suggestion! I may just try a sip as I’m a vegetarian. Ooh the guilt! Ha. Cheers
I just made my first caesar tonight... and then found this.. mind blown. Gonna go buy this now.
@@darrylb5373 Glad to hear it.
Montreal Steak Spice mixed 50/50 with celery salt makes a nice rimmer too. The steak spice is a bit chunky, so I recommend grinding it a bit if you have the means.
Don't forget the prawns and bacon strips for garnish! Can't go wrong with a crab leg in there either, lol.
Other additives some people like include horseradish and pickle brine. Suit yourself man. Just let the caesar flow... *feel* the caesar!
@@balzonurchin gonna try that.. I really didn't want to try clamato.. but it works so well.
MSG is delicious though.
How is a basic bloody Mary different than a basic Caesar?
The real difference is tomato juice (Mary) versus clamato juice (a combination of clam and tomato juice mixed together - Caesar). The other differences are more subtle. Things like the rim of the glass. Coarse salt versus celery salt or a mixed blend of spices. Lemon versus lime. You get the picture. Those differences are subjective and really are a personal preference. Taste-wise, I find a Caesar much lighter and not quite as thick as a Mary. Cheers!
Like he said, thickness...the clamato does a nice job of thinning out the drink...a lot a bloody's are too thick with tomato pulp...I like to use a mix of V8 (thick) with Clamato (thin) in my bloody's (Caesar's lol). But I also use pickle juice which thins it out as well
What? No snit on the side!? With all that food you need some beer to wash it down. Love your videos.You're like a cross of PeeWee Herman and William Hickey.
That’s an interesting comparison, ha!
I want to hang out with him! Just love him!!! We’d be best friends I just know it! I’m crossing the border! You’re right, so much lighter than a blood Mary and you get to eat and drink at the same time!!!
Can’t go wrong with this one! I’m down to be best friends forever. Ha!
Its a meal, not a cocktail, ahahah 😂🍸
Missed a hamburguer 😂😂😝😝😎
Bonus! Thanks for watching, cheers!
Wait this guy still works at a bar? No retirement in that life huh.
No end in sight! Share my videos and help me get there sooner ha. Thanks for watching!
I would pay $15 for that
Sold! Ha
What a drink. Wow baby. Vodka in a pinch, I guess. But if your going out your way with Walters, why not go with a nice blanco tequila instead? ...just a thought.
That’s because I haven’t had a drop of tequila since 1979!! But that’s a story for another day. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Well said. Keep up the great videos. Thanks.
Where are the onion rings
They’re there somewhere. lol
