Review: The Murph’s Famous Bloody Mary Mix – Original and Hot & Spicy
OK, who is The Murph? He’s Stephen Murphy, a Wall Street guy turned mixology enthusiast who figured he could whip up a Bloody Mary mix better than anyone else — and he put his money where his mouth was, selling his homegrown mix out of his car for nearly a decade.

It’s a solid mixer if you like it nice and hot, but along the way you do lose some of that rich tomato character. A-
