The Bloodbath is a cocktail that is the staple of the Vampire Culture around the world, with reports of it being made in South America, Siberia, Japan, and Australia. The Bloodbath is an original Black Veil, but few know it’s true history. It was created by Alchemistress Ambrosia of the Sabretooth Clan as the staple drink of the Legendary Vampire Club “Long Black Veil” in Gotham Halo (NYC) and Endless Night Vampire Ball events.
This drink was such a favorite of many of the Black Veiled Vampires and guests of LBV over the years that they would empty bar stocks in one evening. Many Black Veil Vampires recall the old days at LBV with dozens of Victorian and leather clad Gents and Witches standing around slowly sipping from wine glasses of Bloodbaths them in the Versailles room of MOTHER.
The Bloodbath is traditionally made with 1/3 chambord liquor, 1/3 cranberry juice and 1/3 red wine (preferably Cabernet), then put on ice, shaken like a Martini, and served in a chilled wine glass. There have been many variations, such as the New Orleans Bloodbath, which uses a hint of rum, or other versions which add grenadine, spices, or to share a Bloodbath with another Vampire is a great pleasure, especially while at a Vampire Ball, meetup, haven, or moot.
