BOAT DRINKS
It's National Bloody Mary Day
It's the birthday of a boat drink made with
vodka, tomato juice and a dash of Tabasco sauce.
It's said that the Bloody Mary was created in
the 1920s by a French bartender named Fernand
Petiot. He brought the drink with him when he
migrated to the United States to work at New
York's St. Regis Hotel.
The cocktail was first named ..."the Red
Snapper" and was later changed to "Bloody Mary"
in honor of actress Mary Pickford, a silent
movie actress.
