Does anyone have any ideas on making a Bloody Mary that is different than the norm?!

Does anyone have any ideas on making a Bloody Mary that is different than the norm?

I'm entering a contest in a cook-off and I would like to garnish it with something other than celery

thanks Barbara, great idea with the shrimp! I usually put pickled okra, garlic stuffed olives and sometimes zesty pickle slices. I use picante clamato (cuz here in TX we like a lil hot!) I just tried Zing Zang mix and it is awesome (has a bit of a bite to it)

Something that will add a zing to your bloody mary is to add a small tot of Roses lime juice (if you can get it), this adds a whole new taste dimension to the drink, great idea about the shrimp, the exact amount of lime juice............make a few and try them in varying strengths....... great excuse to drink bloody mary's I hope you do well !!
