Top 5 Hong Kong Bloody Marys
With hundreds of variations, the Bloody Mary is one of the most versatile cocktails out there. Self-confessed Bloody Mary addict Andrea Lo rounds up the best in town.
Armani Privé
There are three Bloody Marys to choose from at Armani Privé. Try the black garlic and bell pepper, in which the spiced tomato juice is made using liquidized organic Italian plum tomatoes. In the Bloody Tokyo, wasabi and shiso leaf is blended with tomato juice and topped off with sake. And last but not least, the Bloody Acapulco is shaken with coriander and silver tequila. The more the Mary-er!

Castro’s
This beloved TST bar mixes up a mean Bloody Mary. Not only is it an extremely generous pour, but you can even ask for extra spice. If you enjoy a kick, you’d better head over right away—the Castro’s blend is heavy on the horseradish.
16 Ashley Rd., Tsim Sha Tsui, 2957-8041.
Dan Ryan’s Chicago Grill
The exhausted parent’s secret weapon, Dan Ryan’s Bloody Mary is generous with the alcohol content, and the cocktail is actually really good. It even comes with a shrimp! Pair with a plate of ribs and you’ll feel able to face your offspring again in no time.
