Author Notes: This drink recipe evolved from years of raking clams and hanging out on the beaches and waters of Nantucket. I give you the easy version-made with bottled clamato juice. I have also made these, juicing local tomatoes and shucking littlenecks for the juice. Like any tomatoey-vodka concoction, the variations are endless. - danigirl

Serves 2

3 ounces Good vodka (I like 888 brand)
12 ounces Clamato juice
4 dashes Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Celery seed
4 dashes Tobasco sauce
I Lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon Dried dill
Ground black pepper
2 Shucked littleneck clams with juice

Combine first eight ingredients in a picher and stir well. Pour over ice into two large iced glasses (I use pint beer glasses).
Place a shucked clam into each glass.
