I usually do not repeat a post, but in this case I have made an exception. I participated in an on-line link party that was an international event last week. I also posted this story about Marian on Monday of that week. I didn’t feel that her story got to be up long enough due to the event so I am reposting today. This is a great product and Marian is an outstanding entrepreneur. I hope you’ll enjoy her story and try her product!
There is NOTHING I love more than a success story in the making. I think I came into this world hard wired with an entrepreneurial spirit. I appreciate anyone who has the ideas, drive and ambition to make something work. I am sharing this post with you once again since Marian’s interview got mixed into a week long International Link Party I was asked to participate. Marian’s story and her product are so good, I feel they need the undivided attention of my readers!
When I met Marian Aiksnora last week I was not disappointed. I tasted her “Bloody Amazing Bloody Mari ‘n’ Marinade Island Seasoning” at Vivan’s AccentMarketplace when a pitcher of Bloody Mary’s was there for tasting on a rainy Saturday afternoon. I’m always looking for delicious mixes for drinks. At first taste I felt a slight pucker from the tartness, then, as the flavors grew in my mouth I thought, “Wow!”, this is really great! I, personally, do not like a bland Bloody Mary.
I picked up a flyer for the product and realized that this is not JUST Bloody Mary Mix. Marian has taken her product a step further and created all sorts of recipes that use her mix with awesome results!
Marian Aiksonra is a winner. After years of working in the high tech world as a graphic designer, she found herself in financial straights after the now famous crash of 2008. Raising two children on one’s own is always a challenge and with no job, even more so. Marian accepted a position as bartender at a golf club in Connecticut. Customers would order Bloody Marys, but they were not happy with the club’s recipe. After putting together a list of ingredients suggested by her clientele, Marian came up with this delicious blend of spicy tomato goodness that adds a kick to the ever popular brunch drink as well as cocktail dipping sauce, steak marinade and many other recipes she has come up with. “All I wanted to do was make a good Bloody Mary mix.”, Marian told me, this product has gone far beyond that!
“Bloody Amazing” is available on-line or you can find a store near you by visiting the website, http://www.bloodyamazingseasoning.com/shop.html . It doesn’t take much, so a bottle goes a long way. Cheers Marian! I wish you a huge success and I believe that wish will come true!

Love the name of Marian’s seasoning and that last photo is making my mouth pucker. Is there anything better at a brunch? -
