Bloodies Worth Brunching For: Illinois’ Top Picks

Which bloody are you thirsty for? 

Bloody Mary season is HERE. Why limit yourself to just one Bloody Mary this fall, instead you should try a trio of Bloody Marys that make up the best in the Stateline.

Let me be completely honest. Before I went on a hunt to find the Stateline's Best Bloody Mary, I didn't even like Bloody Marys. I will never say that again.

So, I know you're thinking... where do I go to find the Stateline's Best?

I'm glad you asked.
