Bloody Mary: Drinks
built 678 days ago
This elongated flat card proves a Bloody Mary can be just the thing partygoers need after a long week. A tall red-orange glass features your party's details as a light-green celery stick comfortably sits in the drink. The contrast between the red drink and bright white background makes your invitation's text accentuate the colorful card.

Bloody Marys are the flagship drink of a sometimes-overlooked category of booze known as the "hair of the dog," which is actually a reference to eating dog hair. (A clipped version of the archaic "the hair of the dog that bit you," a bit of folk medicine that suggested the best antidote for rabies was a potion brewed with hair from the particular rabid dog that gave you the rabies in the first place). Sunday morning cocktails like the Bloody Mary are reputed to take the edge off lingering hangovers, giving you a free head start on your next one. The medicinal science that backs this claim up is a bit lacking, but there's no doubt that tomato juice and fresh fruits and veggies that mark traditional Mary mixes will clear your head up a bit, and ward off scurvy as an added bonus.

"THE DRINK-MIXER: George Jessel, in full-page ads in magazines, announces that he invented the Bloody Mary, by mixing tomato juice with vodka. Those who know Jessel are aware that he doesn't care what he drinks, as long as it's booze."

This non-alcoholic mix makes the quintessential Bloody Mary, or you can drink it "as is" for a healthy morning breakfast drink. Start with the following classic recipes, or try adding special touches like 1/4 cup soy sauce, a teaspoon of ground ginger, or a tablespoon of chopped fresh dill. Cheers!

There is no drink in the world as delicious as a Bloody Mary. I’ll even put a bloody ahead of Dr. Pepper, which runs a close second, followed third by a chocolate milk (Hershey’s syrup and 1% organic milk is best).
