The Scapular of the Most Precious Blood is a Roman Catholic devotional scapular.
It is associated with the Confraternity of the Precious Blood. No special indulgences, however, are connected with the wearing of this scapular, and it is an optional Sacramental for the members of the order.
The scapular must be of red cloth and usually has an image of the chalice with the Precious Blood of Jesus being adored by angels.
