The Story Behind The Bloody Maria
The Bloody Mary has been a hangover helper for nearly a century, inspiring countless variations. While the vodka-based brunch drink is a classic in its own right, tequila adds more depth to the cocktail with its unique woody and vegetal flavors.
Making a Bloody Maria is a dealer's choice — easily adapted based on the maker’s palate. Add more hot sauce if it needs more spice, use a little less Worcestershire, or douse it with black pepper at the end if your heart desires. The inclusion of tequila will enhance the concoction, no matter the specs, adding spiciness and richness to an already beloved tipple.
