This is a Mongolian Mary, a bloody Mary with a sheep's eye in it. The picture is a cup filled with dark liquid with a sheep's eye floating in the centre with a sprig of celery poking out the top. Great for hangovers, so it's said.

I just learned from @lilithepunk.bsky.social that back in the day if you were in Ireland and wanted to toast St. Patrick, the only spot you could legally do so was at the Royal Dublin Society Dog Show. #folklore #everydayfolklore #folkloring #stpatricksday #drowntheshamrock
