The inaugural Bloody Mary Festival took place in 2015 on a beautiful day with yummy food, fun people, great shopping, music, and a dazzling variety of creative Bloody Mary concoctions. What do you like in your Bloody Mary? Well chances are you would have been satisfied - pickled veggies, uinque salts, chicken wings, BLTs, grit cakes, sausage, shrimp, crab legs - you name it and it was stuffed and piled inside the red libations. Oh! And plenty of vodka in the glasses, along with mimosas and Grayton Beer.
