3 cups tomato juice

2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon hot sauce
2 teaspoons Worcestershire
Juice of 4 limes
Lime wheels, for garnish
Celery stalks, for garnish
Bacon-Wrapped Pickles, for garnish, recipe follows
6 cornichon pickles
6 slices bacon

Steps:

Combine the tomato juice, tequila, horseradish, hot sauce, Worcestershire and lime juice in a pitcher.
Serve over ice with a lime wheel, celery stalk and a Bacon-Wrapped Pickle to garnish.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed sheet tray with heavy-duty foil.
Lay the bacon out on the sheet tray. Par-bake the bacon for 10 minutes. Lay out in a paper towel to drain off any extra grease.
Wrap each cornichon in a slice of bacon and secure with a bamboo pick. Place back in the oven until the bacon is crisp, 10 minutes.
