There’s something magical about discovering the perfect pairing—and this weekend, we struck gold. What started as a casual brunch idea turned into a full-on flavor celebration, thanks to two standout ingredients: Pretzel Jerky from PretzelJerky.com and a locally made Bloody Mary mix from McGarrah Farms, found at the Bentonville Farmers Market.

🥨 Pretzel Jerky: A Snack Reinvented

Pretzel Jerky is not your average snack. It’s a bold fusion of the salty crunch of a pretzel and the savory chew of jerky—flavor-forward, texture-rich, and totally addictive. Whether you’re snacking straight from the bag or using it as a garnish, it adds a gourmet twist that elevates any dish or drink.

🌱 McGarrah Farms: Local Flavor with Deep Roots

The Bloody Mary mix came from McGarrah Farms in Pea Ridge, Arkansas—a family-run farm that’s been part of the region’s agricultural heartbeat since 1824. Known for their fresh, locally grown produce, McGarrah Farms crafted this mix using their own vine-ripened tomatoes. The result? A farm-fresh burst of flavor that’s earthy, vibrant, and unmistakably Arkansas.

🍹 The Ultimate Bloody Mary Build

We combined the mix with our favorite spirits and went all-in on the garnish game:

• Pretzel Jerky

• Wisconsin cheese curds

• A hearty meat stick

• Mushrooms

• Pickles

The result was a savory, spicy, and satisfying Bloody Mary that felt more like a meal than a cocktail—and a true tribute to local craftsmanship and culinary creativity.

🎉 Why This Pairing Works

This isn’t just about taste—it’s about celebrating local pride, bold flavor, and the joy of discovering something truly special. Whether you’re hosting brunch or just treating yourself, this combo is a must-try.
