Blood and Sand takes its name from the movie Blood and Sand, released in 1922. The movie was about the rise and tragic life of a bullfighter. The cocktail is named after this dramatic story.

It gained a permanent place in the cocktail world with its inclusion in The Savoy Cocktail Book published in 1930. The interesting point is that it is one of the rare classic cocktails that use Scotch whisky.
