From Sparrow’s non-alcoholic cocktail list, the Virgin Mary is our zero-proof take on the brunch classic, all the savory, spicy, satisfying personality of a Bloody Mary with none of the alcohol ($8). It is the order that lets the designated driver, the pregnant guest, and the sober-curious have just as much fun at the table as everyone else.
About Virgin Mary
A Virgin Mary is the non-alcoholic version of the Bloody Mary, a savory, tomato-based cocktail seasoned to taste and served tall over ice. At Sparrow we build it with the same craft care the 21+ lounge brings to its spirited drinks, layering in the bright, spicy, umami-rich character the classic is known for. It drinks like a proper cocktail, which is exactly why it has earned its spot on the zero-proof menu rather than being treated as an afterthought.
Tasting Notes
Savory and bold, with ripe tomato, a tangy lift, and a warm peppery kick, finished bright and refreshing. It is the rare brunch drink that is practically a snack in itself, satisfying enough to carry a slow weekend morning.
What to Pair It With
A savory Virgin Mary is built for brunch. From the Sparrow menu it is a natural with Eggs Benedict, Chilaquiles, and Fried Chicken and Waffles, and it stands up to all-day shareables like Wagyu Sliders and Fresh Oysters on the four-season dog-friendly patio.
