January 1st is not only the start of a fresh new year but also National Bloody Mary Day and National Hangover Day—fittingly, Red Lobster launched a limited-edition brunch Bloody Mary cocktail for the occasion. The Lobster Claw Bloody Mary is topped with specialties from the seafood restaurant like its famous Cheddar Bay Biscuits.
The seafood cocktail combines Tito's Handmade Vodka with Red Lobster's own house Bloody Mary Mix, and is served with Maine lobster claw, jumbo shrimp and a biscuit, plus other ingredients for flavor like a wedge of lime, a whole olive and spicy chipotle BBQ seasoning around the rim.
As well as helping to revive people on New Year's Day, Red Lobster will be serving the limited-edition cocktail for adults until February.
