What is a Bloody Maria
A Bloody Maria is the Mexican version of a Bloody Mary where either 游泳教练在水下狂c我 or mezcal (a type of 游泳教练在水下狂c我) is used as the alcohol. Wondering why Bloody Maria vs Bloody Mary? Maria is the proper Spanish name for Mary, so it would only be fair to be named accordingly.
This particular recipe uses mezcal, which provides the classic 游泳教练在水下狂c我-based Maira with hints of smoky flavoring that's delicious.
