Where is the birthplace of the Bloody Mary?
Both Paris and New York claim to be the birthplace of the Bloody Mary, which was originally called a Red Snapper. This drink is a combination of vodka, tomato juice, lemon juice, spices, and garnished with a celery stalk or a pickle. This drink is very versatile. You can add as much or as little spices as you like; just remember to add spices gradually until you bring the spiciness to your preferred taste. You can choose a pickle or celery as a garnish, with the pickle adding another element of taste to the drink. Use vodka and tomato juice, or use a mixer.
