Breakfast in a glass

Not a weekday breakfast, though.  Treat this one like a mimosa.

Pour into a tumbler:

6-8 ounces of orange juice

Add a shot of:

chilled bacon vodka

Mix well and serve.

I had some Bakon from Kahn's Fine Wines in Naptown, but you can also make your own--thanks to the Pinterest board from Lindsay Allen at the Editor's Taste Buds.

You can drink it on the rocks, but I always keep my fruit juice chilled and my booze in the freezer, so it didn't need it.

My experience was like first drinking a swig of orange juice to wash down some bacon, followed by the taste of having eaten some bacon after drinking orange juice, accompanied by a shot of vodka.

Eventually I will try a bloody Mary with the Bakon (also from Lindsay's Pinterest board).  Not a huge fan of tomato juice, but I like BLTs and I actually had a pretty good bloody Mary at a barbecue joint in Champaign once that was saved through the liberal use of black and hot peppers.
