The drink 'Bloody Mary' is believed to have been invented by Fernand Petiot back in 1921 while he was working as a bar tender at the New York Bar,a frequent hangout for Ernest Hemingwayand other American expatriates. The drink was initially called 'Red Snapper' before a waitress called Mary, working in a bar in Chicago, started calling it 'Bucket of blood'. Her customers started calling it 'Mary's blood' until it became known as 'Bloody Mary'. I believe it was referred to her awkward attitude towards her thirsty and demanding customers!
