Bloody Marys-Gin or Vodka? (1 Viewer)

[DCThunder]

My wife and I were having an argument about what kind of liquor you put in a Bloody Mary. She said gin and I was astonished. What says the FFA?

 

[FUBAR]

Gin = Red Snapper

 

[rockaction]

Damn. Always thought vodka.

Love me a good Bloody Mary on a day that I watch college football. (That means rarely.)

You may want to consider divorce.

Typical broad, couldn't be more wrong

Should be another rare Unanimous FFA poll.... should be.


Secret here is a wager. Something like Loser tattoos "I have no ####### idea what I'm talking about" tattooed to their forehead.

 

[squistion]

Gin = Red Snapper

That. Although you have to figure that the original Bloody Mary was probably made with gin, not vodka. It's an English drink, and the English drink gin. I would guess that it got dumbed down to vodka at some point to please American palate.

 

[rockaction]

Two different drinks, the Red Snapper and the Bloody Mary, I guess. But you learn something new every day.

And for Ol' Blue Eyes, the cocktail of choice was a mix of four ice cubes, two fingers of Jack Daniel's whiskey, and a splash of water. "This is a gentlemen's drink," he once said. And if you want to hold the drink like Frank, don't touch the rim.

Mmmmm vodka & clams, that's never made anyone vomit I'll bet.

Caesar is probably the best tasting "feminine" drink that exists.

Besides Campari and Orange Juice.

I could throw up just thinking about gin for 10 seconds.

Odd that The Chairman needed the splash when he's got four cubes in the glass.

If that what it takes for the wife then so be it.

[thayman]

Try St. George's Green Chile Vodka. Makes an incredible Bloody

 

[chet]

Vodka is more popular but I've had both.

 

[tonydead]

Clamato is for chicks. And Canadians apparently.

 

[coyote5]

One of the better bloodies I've ever had was a mix of tomato juice and clamato

 

[coyote5]

And it was made with ####### vodka

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Mmmmm vodka & clams, that's never made anyone vomit I'll bet.

Thanks, next time I'll order a Clamato & Gin instead.

I got to 7 seconds recollecting the time I drank gin and juice like snoop dog and went to the movies and then threw up red popcorn shrapnel in someone's bathtub before I aborted the challenge. Nicely played Homer.

This makes sense, since the English have terrible palates.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

The most popular Bloody Mary origin story is that the bartender at the St. Regis in New York created the "Red Snapper" which was made with vodka in the early 30s. Competitors in the area then started knocking off the drink and calling it a Bloody Mary. Nobody really knows how the original Red Snapper appellation ended up applied to the drink made with gin.

I make Snappers at home because I rarely have vodka around. I like it, but it's a different drink. I don't use any super spicy mix. Just tomato juice and lemon. It ends up a bit more quaffable.

 

[xulf]

I hate tomato juice so I'm not a big bloody fan. That said, I was in Chicago and went to bub city which has an amazing bloody bar (includes a 7 oz high life and mini grilled cheese, shrimp, oysters and a whole lot more). Anyway, I went with whiskey, which was an option along with my three dining guys and gals. Was different and very good. So, I went with other.

What kind of animal put gin in a Bloody Mary?

If it's made with gin, it's not a bloody mary.
