Bloody Mary cocktail
The Bloody Mary cocktail is made from vodka and tomato juice blended together with some spices and condiments. The addition of tobasco and Worcestershire sauce gives it an unusual flavour profile.
The Bloody Mary cocktail also has a reputation as being a good cocktail for those with a hangover, although unfortunately despite the health benefits of the tomato juice, the inclusion of the alcohol is the most likely rationale for any disguising of a hangover.
