Although the bloody mary has become a popular cocktail especially for brunches, many people still don’t know how the drink came about or how to make it.

The bloody mary is actually around 80 years old and was created in a Paris bar. The original recipe went something like this:

• 1 oz. Stolichnaya vodka
• 2 oz. Tomato juice
• 1 dash lemon juice
• 2 dashes salt
• 2 dashes black pepper
• 2 dashes cayenne pepper
• 3 dashes of Worcestershire sauce

Garnish with a lemon wedge and celery stalk.
