Method
Boil, cool, and peel
- Place the eggs in a pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Cover, remove from heat, and let stand 12 minutes.
- Chill the eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes. Peel and halve lengthwise.
Make the Bloody Mary yolk filling
- Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, tomato paste, prepared horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, hot sauce, celery salt, and vodka until smooth. Add vodka only if using.
- Season the filling with black pepper to taste. Stir until evenly combined.
Fill and garnish
- Pipe the filling into the egg whites. Fill each half all the way to the edge.
- Top each with a celery leaf, a slice of pickled okra (or olive), and a pinch of Old Bay. Keep toppings small for a tight, even look.
Notes
For the cleanest piping, chill the halved whites until cold before filling. Refrigerate deviled eggs in a sealed container for up to 3 days; do not freeze. For a lighter option, swap mayonnaise for plain Greek yogurt (use the same amount) to keep the filling tangy but less rich.
