John deBary's Pizza Anytime cocktail is a Bloody Mary riff that’s inspired by Bagel Bites. It isn't a gimmick, but a delicious cocktail that stands on its own two feet.

With ingredients like marinara sauce, pepperoni slices, and everything bagel seasoning, your pantry might already contain everything you need to enjoy this pizza cocktail.

Pizza Anytime is 1 of 65 cocktails in deBary's new book. The author stated, "I picked out all these things that I loved in the '90s in an effort to retroactively make them cool."

About 75 million Tamagotchi toys have been sold since they were launched in 1996. The new color Tamagotchi will go on sale in November.
DeBary dug deep into pop culture to create these unique recipes, stating he wanted his readers to "make a delicious drink that will remind them of 'Barbie Girl' or Tamagotchi."

Like Bagel Bites, deBary's recipe is beautifully simple. Infuse vodka with everything bagel seasoning, then strain the mix and add marinara sauce and lemon juice.
