Midnight Star

(from Silverado)

Midnight Star

Our Mexican-themed drink for Silverado, named after Linda Hunt’s saloon in the film, is a triple-threat drink sequence of mezcal (brought to you by official sponsor Ilegal Mezcal), a citrus-habanero sangrita, and a nice cerveza to wash it down.

SANGRITA:
1 part pineapple juice
1 part orange juice
1 part lime juice
1 part aloe water
¼ tsp habanero, pulverized
Silver leaf, edible

Ilegal Mezcal Anejo

Mexican cerveza  of your choice

Combine sangrita ingredients into shaker (deseed and grind habanero in mortar and pestle) and shake vigorously; pour into glass. Drink a sip of that smooth mezcal, then sip the sangrita, then finish it off with your cool beer.

Clockwork

(from Bicentennial Man)

Clockwork

This whiskey-based drink transforms some humble thyme into something entirely different, echoing Robin Williams’ transformation in the film from robot to human. Instead of aging this whiskey in oak, we decide to throw in some fruity citrus flavors to represent some of the wackier costume and production design in this futuristic tale.

3 parts white whiskey (infuse with orange and raspberry)
1 part amaretto
1 part dry vermouth
Fresh thyme leaves

1) Pour white whiskey into infusion jar along with fresh raspberries and orange slices. The more this infuses, the more flavor you get, so steep for at least 1-3 days.

2) To make the thyme-ice, pulverize fresh thyme leaves in a mortar and pestle (or bash with whatever you have available) and steep in hot water for several minutes. Pour that water into an ice tray or mold and freeze.

3) Pour amaretto, whiskey and vermouth in desired glass with thyme ice; stir to combine.

Champion of Justice

(from Fish Story)

Champion of Justice

For such a deliberately weird movie, we came up with a appropriately weird drink – mixing gin, sake, and tequila in a surprisingly tasty combination, with some refreshing citrus flavors to cut through the strength of the alcohol. Serve with an orange wedge for maximum justice.1 part gin
1 part sake
1 part jalapeno-infused tequila
1 part orange liqueur
1 part blood orange juice
splash, lemon juice
dash, rhubarb bittersCombine in a shaker with ice; serve straight up.

Flawless Victory

(from Mortal Kombat)

Flawless Victory

This tomato-y, citrusy, spicy cocktail has all the smoke and kick of your average day in Outworld. Think of it like a Bloody Mary made from the blood of your enemies, and also a demon or two. 1 part smoky scotch (e.g. Islay scotches like Laphroaig)
1 part gold tequila
3 parts tomato juice
radishes
splash, lemon juice
black pepper, red chili flakes, paprika1) Muddle radishes in shaker; add ice and remaining ingredients and shake.
2) Combine pepper, paprika and chili flakes on plate and apply to rim of glass.
3) Pour cocktail into glass; enjoy.

Wings of an Angel

(from Wing Commander)

Wings of an Angel

For this interstellar Star Wars-meets-Top Gun adventure, we decided to make a rum-based drink (as per naval tradition) that you can drink in the ship’s bar between missions. The green honeydew, cucumbers and lime add some light, refreshing elements to it (while also evoking the look of a green laser beam), grounded by the more robust elements of the triple sec and the cilantro.

2 parts silver Barbados rum (infused with green honeydew melon)
1 part triple sec
cucumbers
cilantro leaf
splash, lime juice

1) Muddle cucumber and cilantro in shaker.
2) Add rum, triple sec and lime juice in shaker with ice; shake vigorously.
3) Strain into Collins glass with ice; garnish with cucumber slice, sprig of cilantro and lime slice.

Rusty Pyramid

(from Silent Hill)

Rusty Pyramid

This play on the Rusty Nail gives us a suitably nightmarish accompaniment to this atmospheric horror film. We replaced the Drambuie with Irish Mist, added some smoky and sweet flavors with the hickory and apple, and rounded it out with citrus and cinnamon flavors to make a palatable drink not even Pyramid Head could refuse – provided he could drink through that giant helmet of his.

2 parts scotch
2 parts Irish Mist
3 parts apple juice
1 drop liquid hickory
Splash, lemon
Splash, orange
Pinch, ground cinnamon

Fill a glass with ice; add ingredients and stir.

Jack Flack’s Flak Jacket

(from Cloak and Dagger)

Jack Flack's Flak Jacket

Combining a kid’s chocolate milk with the kind of stiff drink a Jack Flack-esque superspy would consume, this beverage also throws in some old fashioned San Antonio flavors befitting its Texan setting.1 part Jagermeister
2 parts rye whiskey
1 part amaretto
5 parts chocolate milk
dash, blackstrap bitters

Combine in a rocks glass with ice; stir. Garnish with banana slices and maraschino cherry.

The Other Castle

(from Super Mario Bros. The Movie)

The Other Castle

Super Mario Bros. The Movie‘s underground setting gave us the inspiration for this martini variant, with mushrooms, bell peppers and other earthly flavors. We also threw in some citrus in there for some much-needed lightness and sweetness, but be warned; this is a very dry martini.1 white mushroom, sliced
1 slice each of green and yellow bell pepper
3-4 fresh basil leaves
1 part akvavit
1 part limoncello
splash, lemon juice
6 parts vodka1) Muddle mushroom, bell peppers, and basil till broken down (add the akvavit to help provide some lubrication).
2) Add remaining ingredients and ice in shaker; stir to combine.
3) Pour straight into martini glass (we didn’t, but you can feel free to run drink through a fine mesh strainer to get out the muddled vegetables) and garnish with mushrooms.

The Chaunce-tant Gardener

(from Being There)

Chaunce-tant Gardener

Since Being There is a gardener’s tale, we chose a suitably produce-heavy cocktail, with juiced cucumbers, celery and Golden Delicious apples to offer up some pleasant, aromatic flavors. The gin and green chartreuse act as a suitably WASP-y base for the upper-crust characters Chauncey encounters throughout the film, and the soda water and citrus gives it the nice bubbly lightness that you want most out of a summer drink.

3 parts gin
1 part green chartreuse
1 part triple sec
1 part honeydew-melon vodka
2 parts Golden Delicious apple juice
1 part cucumber
1 part celery juice
1 part sweetened lime juice
2 parts soda water

1) Juice the apples, cucumber and celery.
2) Combine in a Collins glass with ice; top with the soda water.
3) Garnish with slices of apple, cucumber and celery; serve.

Tonight’s “Special”

(from The LEGO Movie)

Tonight's "Special"Lego Ice

 

We wanted to pick something suitably fruity, bubbly and all over the place, as befits this movie, so we decided to make a clear sangria with fruit juice cubes that add flavor as they melt. Also, we’ve had a LEGO brick ice mold for years, so we thought this the perfect time to use it! As the ice melts, the drink gets increasingly awesome until it becomes truly Special. (WARNING: Don’t use alcoholic drinks to repair strained relationships with your children – just play with Legos instead.)

COCKTAIL:
1 part of Pisco grape brandy
1 part of Grand Marnier
9 parts sparkling white wine
LEGO ICE*: (Freeze these into a LEGO brick ice mold of your choice to make these colors; make about 8 ounces apiece to fill a whole silicon mold with one color)

*Red – Combine cherry and cranberry juice, splash of water
Orange – Orange juice
Yellow – Blended banana, freshly squeezed lemon juice, ½ lemons’ worth of zest
Purple – Combine blueberry and pomegranate juices, splash of water
Green – Freshly juiced cucumber (peel and all), finely diced fresh mint

1) Purchase an off-brand LEGO brick silicon ice mold; fill with desired liquids/colors and let freeze for several hours.
2) Fill a wide glass to the top with desired LEGO ice flavors.
3) Pour in Grand Marnier and Pisco, then fill to the brim with sparkling wine.
