The All-Canadian Caesar™

The All-Canadian Caesar™

 

 

Canada’s cocktail deserves Canadian ingredients. The All-Canadian Caesar™ challenges the quiet habit of relying on imported hot sauce, imported juice brands, and foreign vodka when high-quality Canadian producers are available. THANKS delivers the familiar tang and everyday versatility bartenders expect, making it easy to shift the recipe without disrupting service. Same iconic Caesar. Stronger Canadian footprint.

 

 

Ingredients

Rim & Glass

  • 1 lime wedge
  • Caesar rimmer or celery salt



The Drink

  • 1½ oz vodka
  • 4–5 dashes THANKS Red Leaf hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Rim the glass
    Run a lime wedge around the rim of a tall glass. Dip it into Caesar rimmer or celery salt.

    Fill the glass with ice. Add vodka, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and a generous 4–5 dashes of THANKS Red Leaf.
  3. Top and stir
    Pour in Clamato juice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Garnish proudly
    Add a celery stalk, a pickle spear or pickled bean, and a lime wedge. For an extra-Canadian touch, garnish with a piece of crispy bacon.
  5. Raise your glass
    Enjoy a Caesar that’s bold, balanced, and unmistakably Canadian.

Why This Caesar Matters

This isn’t just a recipe — it’s part of a movement. Across Canada, restaurants and bars are joining the Drop Franks, Give THANKS program by swapping in THANKS Red Leaf for imported hot sauces in their Caesars, wings, and signature dishes.

Each participating location donates a portion of sales directly to the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) through a custom link, making every order a simple and transparent way to support youth mental wellness.

Same heat. Local heart. Proudly Canadian. Boldly committed to change.
