In this special cocktail episode of “Binging with Babish,” a cooking series where home chef Andrew Rea recreates famous foods and drinks from films and TV shows, Andrew demonstrates how to make several memorable movie cocktails, including The Dude’s signature White Russian from The Big Lebowski, sweet wermouth on the rocks with a twist from Groundhog Day, a mint julep from Thank You For Smoking, an Old Fashioned from Crazy Stupid Love, James Bond’s Vesper Martini from Casino Royale, a French 75 from Casablanca, and more.
“Cocktails hold a special place in movies, television, and my heart. Whether it’s Bogie drinking away his problems in a nazi-occupied lounge or The Dude sucking caucasian out of his mustache, the cocktail represents an important milestone in the lexicon of human achievement: making booze taste better so we can get smashed faster.”
