Bloody Mary
Difficulty: Easy
Chef's Note

The original Bloody Mary invented in the 1920's by Fernand Petiot, an American bartender at Harry's New York Bar in Paris, consisted of tomato juice and vodka, touted as a hangover cure. He perfected the drink with the addition of Tabasco when he headed up King Cole Bar at New York's St. Regis Hotel shortly after the repeal of prohibition.

A short history - To mark the opening of an Italian recipe in Calgary in 1969, bartender Walter Chell created the Bloody Caesar. Inspired by the Bloody Mary and the Vongole sauce on the menu, he combined clam juice with the tomato to achieve a perfect balance.
