What’s on These Bloody Mary Skewers
We’re giving you not one but FOUR amazing skewer combos to try out. Each one is a mini adventure in taste:

What You’ll Need
All you need are some skewers or toothpicks, a knife for cutting the cheese and other ingredients, and a little creativity. Arrange the ingredients on each skewer, and voilà – you’ve got yourself a show-stopping addition to your Bloody Mary.
Variations and Substitutions
Brie: Swap out brie for camembert or gouda for a different creamy element.
Beef: Not a fan of beef sticks? Try smoked salmon or prosciutto for a gourmet twist.
Vegetarian-friendly: Veggie lovers can replace meat with cherry tomatoes or cucumber slices for a fresh crunch.
Top Tips for Bloody Mary Skewers
- Assemble your skewers right before serving to keep everything fresh.
- Be creative with your combinations – the sky’s the limit!
- If using wooden skewers, soaking them in water first helps prevent splinters.
Storage
Bloody Mary Skewers are best enjoyed fresh. If you must store them, refrigerate them in an airtight container for up to a day.
