Prepare Your Ingredients
Gather all your ingredients. Ensure your bacon-infused vodka, tomato juice, and lemon juice are chilled. Have your Worcestershire sauce and black pepper ready. Prepare your garnishes: a small lettuce leaf and a cherry tomato.
For homemade bacon-infused vodka, cook a few strips of bacon until crispy, let the fat cool and solidify, then add the fat to vodka and let it infuse for a few hours or overnight in the fridge. Strain before use.
Combine Ingredients in a Shaker
Into a cocktail shaker, add of bacon-infused vodka, 90 ml of tomato juice, 15 ml of fresh lemon juice, and 5 ml of Worcestershire sauce. Add a generous pinch of black pepper to taste. Fill the shaker with ice.
Adjust the amount of black pepper to your preference. A little extra can enhance the savory notes.
Shake and Strain
Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is thoroughly chilled. This ensures all ingredients are well combined and properly cooled.
Shaking with ice not only chills the drink but also slightly dilutes it, balancing the flavors. Don't over-shake, as too much dilution can water down the taste.
Serve and Garnish
Fill a chilled rocks glass or coupe with fresh ice. Strain the cocktail mixture from the shaker into the prepared glass. Garnish with a small lettuce leaf and a cherry tomato on a cocktail pick, mimicking the classic BLT sandwich.
For an extra touch, you can rim the glass with smoked paprika or celery salt before pouring the drink.
