From the first sip of this delightfully devilish drink, you will know you have tasted the best cocktail mix this side of heaven.

Where, the mysterious and the unexplainable experiences that occur at the center of HELL inspired the creation of this mischievous concoction. Conceived one day, as Michael Hickey, opened the Dam Site Inn as usual, not being surprised by the peculiar objects that were out of place from the night before. But on this day, He noticed the Mary Mixer and the Clam Juice were oddly placed on the counter together. And it began, Michael combined the two, with just the right seasonings, and created this Sinfully Good Caesar mix. Was this stroke of genius inspired by resident spirits? Perhaps from the original settlers that would hide the barrels of liquor in the river behind the bar when the law would come. Or the previous owner, who employees say never left? Whatever or whoever inspired this and the other Seasoning and Sauces that developed from that day, you can rest assured that Smitty’s Bloody Caesar Mix will lift your Spirit with every satisfying sip. |

A Caesar, sometimes referred to as a Bloody Caesar,[1] after the similar Bloody Mary, is a cocktail popular mainly in Canada. It typically contains vodka, clamato (a blend of tomato juice and clam broth), Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco sauce, and is served on the rocks in a large, celery salt-rimmed glass, typically garnished with a stalk of celery and wedge of lime. A common nickname for a version without vodka is Virgin Caesar. The drink itself is primarily consumed in Canada.
During the early 2000s, Mott's printed the Caesar recipe on bottles of the Clamato juice sold in the United States, but the cocktail drink remains relatively unknown there.[citation needed]

History
The cocktail was invented by bartender Walter Chell at the Owl's Nest Bar in the Calgary Inn in Calgary, Alberta in 1969, to accompany the opening of a new restaurant, Marco's.[2] In its original form, it contained tomato juice and mashed clams; Clamato had only just been released (with the assistance of Chell) by the Mott's company that very year, and was not yet widely known or available.
Starting in 2002, Mott's began marketing pre-mixed Caesars in twelve-ounce bottles.
Variations can include substituted or added ingredients, like salt and pepper, wasabi, cayenne pepper, horseradish, or lime juice, seasoning salt or lemon pepper (rather than celery salt), a garnish of dill pickled cucumber, spicy pickled green bean or asparagus. Occasionally a prawn (especially in seafood restaurants) or crisp bacon is used as a garnish. Other names for a Caesar include Bloody Caesar, Canadian Caesar, Salted Caesar, and Clamdigger.[citation needed]
