National Bloody Mary Day
It would appear that the Bloody Mary is the result of many late nights, lackluster cocktails, and apparently tasteless liquor.
t, a bartender Ferdinand "Pete" Petiot mixed up a cocktail that later made its way to post-prohibition America as the Russian Revolution pressed fleeing men into Paris and Harry's Bar at The Ritz Hotel.
According to Food and Drink in American History: "Full Course" Encyclopedia by Andrew F. Smith, the Bloody Mary made its Paris debut in 1921 at The Ritz Hotel.. It was also known as the Bucket of Blood and the Red Snapper, and it went by the name Red Snapper. After prohibition ended, the prohibitionists, tomato juice, lemon juice, Worcestershire, cayenne, and salty cocktail were introduced to the New York King Cole Bar scene in Paris.
Some attribute the name to Queen Mary Tudor, who executed hundreds of Protestants in the name of Catholicism during her brief five-year reign from 1553 to 1558. Others claim that Petiot's girlfriend of the same name receives the credit.
Today's Bloody Marys feature a variety of ingredients, from pickles, olives, and celery to bacon, horseradish, tobacco, and peppers.
