Bloody Mary

Bloody Mary is the nickname of Mary I (1516 — 58) of England, the daughter of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, who reigned the country during 1553 — 58. She was nicknamed so by her critics because she persecuted Protestant heretics, whom she burned at the stake in hundreds.

Bloody Mary is also a drink made of vodka and seasoned tomato juice.
