I'm having friends over for dinner and want to make Caesars (cocktail for the non-Canadians). Anyone know where to buy clam juice in Zurich?

Not sure about Zurich but you can buy it in-store or on-line from Geneva.

Enter Clamato in the search box.

Not sure if this guy is still open or if he carries clamato juice all the time (he did in 2010). You could call to see.

just FYI.. the American Market ( Geneva & Nyon ) hasnt actually had clam juice in stock for ages... they do however have Clamato.





EDIT... oops... just fully read Verbiers post and realized he also was talking about Clamato and not Clam Juice as I presumed the OP was asking for.

I'll be quiet now.

It's a Canadian thing.

A Caesar or Bloody Caesar is a cocktail created and primarily consumed in Canada. It typically contains vodka, Clamato (a proprietary blend of tomato juice and clam broth), hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce, and is served with ice in a large, celery salt-rimmed glass, typically garnished with a stalk of celery and wedge of lime.
It was invented in Calgary, Alberta in 1969 by restaurateur Walter Chell to celebrate the opening of a new Italian restaurant in the city. It quickly became a popular mixed drink, but remains virtually unknown outside Canada. It is claimed that over 350 million Caesars are consumed in Canada annually, and it has inspired numerous variants.

I'm a Canadian thing too... but as I moved to the states as a wee lad I wasn't so versed on bloody Caesars.

Would oyster sauce with tomaojuice not be an alternative?

"Clam juice"
