Hump Day Happy Hour
A Kicked-Up Bloody Mary for Big Brother
By Julie FishmanNeed a little controversy, conspiracy and all-out chaos in your life? The Big Brother 12 premiere this Thursday on CBS promises all three. Sip a drink as biting as the contestants by stirring up a “Cobb Cocktail,” made for Glo by the bartenders at The Grill on Hollywood in Los Angeles.
A souped-up Bloody Mary featuring a garnish of bacon, blue cheese and avocado, this drink allows you to have your snack and drink it too, eliminating the need to leave the couch during the premiere … and with 13 new houseguests vying for half a million dollars, we don't want to miss any of the edge-of-your-seat action.
