Is bloddy Marys real name Mary queen if scotts?

That's a funny question! It's not true that the Bloody Mary cocktail is named after Mary, Queen of Scots.

Here's the breakdown:

* The Bloody Mary is named after the Virgin Mary: The drink is named after the Virgin Mary because of its red color, which is reminiscent of the blood of Christ. There's no connection to Mary, Queen of Scots.

* Mary, Queen of Scots was a real person: Mary, Queen of Scots was a real historical figure who ruled Scotland in the 16th century. She had a tumultuous life and was eventually executed by her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I of England.

So, while the Bloody Mary and Mary, Queen of Scots are both red in color, they're not related in any other way!
