This classic brunch cocktail is a simple combination of tomato juice, vodka, and a few salty, spicy ingredients you likely have on hand. Fresh lime and lemon juice give it a bright, tangy kick, horseradish adds peppery flavor, and Worcestershire sauce and celery salt make it deliciously savory.
It could be that Fernand Petiot, the bartender who possibly created the drink, named it after the bloody reign of Queen Mary Tudor of England. Other stories link the drink's inception to mid-twentieth century performer George Jessel, who could have named it after a friend named Mary.
A classic Bloody Mary cocktail starts with tomato juice and vodka. But beyond that, recipes vary. I use these simple ingredients to give mine a tangy, savory, spicy flavor.
Want to seal the deal? Load it up with garnishes like celery, olives, and a lemon wedge. It'll taste great and look impressive!
