You are out of your damn mind if you’re hanging out in this heat. Take your butt inside and sit down for a movie and a cocktail, and save that energy for this holiday weekend! This week’s cocktail to movie pairing is a delicious showing of both Halle Berry and the cocktail called the Hemingway Daiquiri, ordered by Bruce Willis’s character in 2007 thriller, Perfect Stranger. With Halle Berry playing a character who is going under cover to try and find her best friend’s killer, who she suspects is a wealthy business man played by Bruce Willis. Although the acting alone carries this film, the Hemingway Daiquiri may just give it a little extra pizzazz! And if you want to make it the way the film portrays the recipe, by all means do, but over the time the true Hemingway Daiquiri is a little different, which is the way we will make it. So, let’s make it!
Ingredients:
- 2 oz light rum (we used Oak House Distillery and Speakeasy
- 1.5 oz grapefruit juice
- 0.5 oz maraschino cherry liqueur
- 0.5 oz lime juice
Shake ingredients with ice and fine strain into martini glass. Garnish with a lime wedge
Perfect Stranger is available to rent or own on Amazon prime or Apple TV. All the cocktail ingredients are available at our 5 Points Bottle Shop of course! Cheers!!!
