Caesar Bar
There are so many Canadian boutique businesses, products, craft beer, cheese producers, estate and family wineries, it would be hard to list all of our favorites. There is, however, one favorite drink, invented in Calgary that shows up on our annual summer visits with friends. The Caesar. Invented at what is now the Westin in downtown Calgary, by Walter Chell. A Caesar varies from a Bloody Mary with the addition of clam juice to tomato juice; rather than just tomato juice found in the Bloody Mary. “Mott’s” has become famous for their brand of Clamato juice that generally finds its way into a Caesar. Whether you like virgin Caesars, or ones with vodka, everyone has their very own special way of making it and what garnishes the glass. Some garnishes have small amounts of CHO, so it will depend on your product and the amounts you use.
