CROIX VALLEY: Original Bloody Mary Rim Salt | Bloody Mary Rim Salt | 99g (3.5oz) shaker

The Finishing Touch Most Bloody Marys Skip

A great Bloody Mary lives and dies by the rim, and the Croix Valley family — nine World BBQ Championship titles deep across the group — know a thing or two about getting the small details right. Original Bloody Mary Rim Salt is a straightforward, savoury seasoned salt blend made to coat a glass properly, so every sip picks up flavour before the drink even hits your lips.

The flavour

Front: a clean, coarse salt crunch hits first. Middle: savoury herb and spice notes come through underneath — celery, pepper and a touch of garlic. Finish: a lingering savoury tang that keeps drawing your lips back to the rim between sips.

How to use it

• Run a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled glass, then twist it in a shallow plate of the salt for an even coat
• Use sparingly on a michelada glass — it plays just as well with beer as it does vodka
• Keep a shaker by the bar cart for any savoury cocktail that could use a proper rim
• Left-field use: sprinkle it over popcorn or roasted potatoes for an easy savoury seasoning outside the glass

In the jar

A coarse, sandy-textured pale salt blend flecked with tiny dried herb and spice particles — visibly chunkier than table salt, designed to grip a wet glass rim.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

A great Bloody Mary lives or dies by the rim, and this coarse savoury salt is built to actually stick to a wet glass instead of sliding off after one sip. Running a full brunch spread? Heavenly Hell Royal Shine Peach & Pecan BBQ Glaze does the same trick for a glazed ham on the side. Wet the rim, twist it through, pour with confidence.

Questions answered

How do I use a Bloody Mary rim salt?

Wet the rim of your glass with a lime wedge, then twist it in a shallow plate of the salt for an even coat before pouring your drink.

Is Original Rim Salt spicy?

No — this is the classic, savoury version with no chilli heat. For a spicy option, look at the Spicy Bloody Mary Rim Salt instead.

Can I use it on drinks other than a Bloody Mary?

Definitely — it works on micheladas and other savoury cocktails, and even as a seasoning for popcorn or roasted vegetables.
