Happy New Year lovelies! In this episode we are drinking an iconic daytime cocktail, the Bloody Mary. This classic 90s drink that is considered by some “the meatloaf of the cocktail world” for its evolving recipes has a hazy origin story but features some of our favorite accoutrements. Its popularity ties into the era of STEPHANIE’s scandal.
STEPHANIE’s scandal is the historic fight between Vice President Dan Quayle and Murphy Brown. We raise our glasses to waging a culture war against an imaginary woman and losing spectacularly! We love to see it!
