Nobody I know loves bloody marys more than this girl...
So, when I found out that Highwood was having a Bloody Mary Fest, Colleen was the first person I texted! The fest took place on a cool and overcast Sunday which, in my opinion, is the perfect kind of day for a good bloody! There were tons of different vendors (food, beer, and bloody marys), live music, and they even managed to provide some big screen TV's to stream the Chicago Bears game. Since Colleen is a hardcore fan, she tried pretty much every bloody mary there was to offer - including one that came with a sandwich slider! I only grabbed one bloody mary and, luckily, it was Colleen's top pick! It was made by Stu's who makes "the perfect bloody mary mix!" We ordered their Chicago style bloody, which included sport peppers, a sliver of their homemade sour pickle, and a tomato. It was fantastic! Also, did you know that there is a drink called a bloody maria?! Instead of vodka you use tequila! Very cool :)
