About the Bloody Mary
Fernand Petiot claimed he created it at Harry's New York Bar in Paris in the 1920s and refined it at the St. Regis in New York in the 1930s.
Bartender's tip: Roll it between two tins instead of shaking to keep the tomato silky.

Good to Know
- What glass is a Bloody Mary served in?
- A highball glass. A narrow column of liquid loses bubbles slowly, and a full load of ice keeps the drink cold without watering it down fast.
- Is a Bloody Mary shaken or stirred?
- It is rolled between two tins to mix it without making it frothy.
- How strong is a Bloody Mary?
- About 10% ABV after dilution, or roughly 1 US standard drinks (14 g of alcohol) per serve.
- How many calories are in a Bloody Mary?
- Roughly 120 kcal per drink, most of it from alcohol.
- Can I make a Bloody Mary without vodka?
- Yes. London Dry Gin is the closest substitute, though the drink will taste different.
