The Bloody Mary is traditional for when one has a hangover.  But if you have been pacing yourself and do not have a hangover, you should stick with screwdrivers, as god intended.

So, if you have been drinking Bloody Marys when you ought to have been drinking screwdrivers, you should double up on the screwdrivers for breakfast until you make up for all of the screwdrivers you should have had.

Blasphemy! I don't know who your god is, but my god commands beer, and on his birthday the only acceptable communion is Pliny the Younger Double IPA. If you don't have any cellared, you're a heathen who won't have access to heaven where only devotees of hops and barley will reside for all time. Don't forget your pretzel necklace: blood of his blood; flesh of his flesh and all that.

The only acceptable drink for breakfast is a hefeweisen of your choice (see? Free will!) with an orange slice. PBUHFH.

(Peace Be Upon His Foamy Head)

Dionysus recognizes all forms of alcohol.  So my god is okay with what you are suggesting, even though I am not.  Don't get me wrong, I like beer.  But not for breakfast.  That just seems wrong.  Beer is for late morning through the evening, not breakfast.  (Or one can instead go with wine or....)  But Dionysus is okay with what you are doing.  But I will stick with screwdrivers for breakfast, as I want a healthy start to my day with plenty of vitamin C.  My healthful ways are why people don't guess how old I am when they meet me, guessing me to be at least a decade younger than I am.

I assure you, I have never had a bad day when I started it with a screwdriver.  All of my bad days started without one.  I think there is a lesson in that for all of us.

Also, I never contaminate my beer with foreign substances.  I like it pure.  Lime and orange slices are not things I want in my beer.  Lime or orange in vodka, sure, but not in beer.
