Elijah Craig is too good to be mixed with anything other than maybe an ice cube or two... maybe. I have a bottle that was part of my groomsman’s gift from my brother’s wedding from like 5 years ago. It’s that good that it has lasted this long as I only sample it for very special occasions.
That being said, a bourbon Bloody Mary only makes sense, especially given how much Worcestershire sauce and horseradish I use to make mine. My Bloody Mary’s get close to a steak in a glass, and bourbon (not Elijah Craig) would be the perfect compliment to that.
