NEVER has a cocktail gained more fame than the liquid food known as BM or Bloody Mary. <\/p>\n
Because the drink is served cold, it makes an excellent refresher even if it has alcohol. It makes you imagine a white beach, some pretty bikini-clad girls and you, with no care in the world. <\/p>\n

The worlds most complex cocktail has securely established itself in popular culture. A Family Guy episode couldnt resist the enticing drink. One scene had Peter Griffin drinking a Bloody Mary to ease the symptoms of a hangover. His drink was garnished with celery. <\/p>\n
Bloody Mary is the drink of choice of George (actor Bob Hoskins) in Mona Lisa. He orders several glasses in the 1986 film. In Back to the Future III, Emmett Brown (Christopher Lloyd) pops out from unconsciousness with a Bloody Bull Shot, a variant of BM, that the bartender renames as Wake-Up Juice. <\/p>\n
In the film Johnny English, Rowan Atkinson orders a Bloody Mary not too spicy from a waiter at the unveiling of the crown jewels. <\/p>\n
Two names are linked with the drink. One is George Jessel, who claims to have created the grandmother of all BMs with his concoction around 1939. His prototype was made with half tomato juice, half vodka. <\/p>\n
Fernand Petiot, a bartender at the New York Bar (later named Harrys New York Bar), in Paris, France, is the second claimant to the cocktails birth. He said he invented the drink as we know it today in 1921. <\/p>\n
He said the first two customers for whom he made the drink were from Chicago, and they say there is a bar there named the Bucket of Blood. And there is a waitress there everybody calls Bloody Mary. One of the boys said that the drink reminds him of Bloody Mary, and the name stuck, according to wikipedia.com. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
