Well having bartended a couple places like San Francisco and London,uk,and having drunk them in many places in Europe,thre seem to be various ways to make them..

it seems to be that the original mix is vodka,tomato juice,worcester sauce,horseradish,lime juice,tabasco and celeri ,salt-black pepper...but in California they add all sorts of stuff,and in the uk they add some Sherry..Anyone has other suggestions?AAlso,was that cocktail really invented in the 20's?and where?

My favorite drink!

I don't really have a recipe, but it's gotta have lotsa olives and hot sauce! In fact, the hotter, the better. Damn, my mouth is watering just thinking about 'em.
