Perfect Summer Bloody Mary With Dill

Want to try something truly unique with your next bloody Mary? This Dilljito bloody Mary recipe will knock your socks off.  Summer is a great time to experiment with various fresh ingredients.  A recent trip to the farmer’s market landed an overwhelming fragrant bunch of dill.  I’m a huge fan of the smell of it.  Dill means summer.  Summer means drinks on the patio. (As do spring, fall, and sometimes winter)

Why should rum and mint have all the fun?  Let’s muddle some dill and make a dilljito!
