“I love to serve this famous Sunday morning libation in Ball jars — although I serve this with summer luncheons of crab salad, deviled eggs and slices of crispy bread because it’s the perfect complementing drink with this menu! People not only love the idea of repurposing the jar, they love the addition of harmonizing avocado and crispy bacon. Add some snow pea shoots for a little bit of artistry and a refreshing replacement for traditional celery. If you’re serving it like I do, use your favorite tomato juice or make a bloody mary mixture and add the accompaniments.” — Kerry Dunnington, author of This Book Cooks
