THE ANGELINA JOLIE Recipe

1

Ingredients

1 DRINK
2 oz (1/4 cup) Speyside single-malt Scotch such as Glenfiddich
1 oz (2 Tbsp) St-Germain (elderflower liqueur)
GARNISH: thin slices of kumquat

Preparation

Step 1

Angelina Jolie gained breakthrough recognition for her role as a sociopath in the film Girl, Interrupted. Since then, she's established herself as one of Hollywood's gun-toting femmes fatales, thanks to sexy films like Mr. and Mrs. Smith and 2008's Wanted. This cocktail-single-malt Scotch coupled with sweet, seductive elderflower liqueur-is all alcohol and a bit bad-ass, but a garnish of sliced kumquats gives it a delicate exoticism.

Pour Scotch and St-Germain over ice cubes in a cocktail shaker. Shake for 10 seconds, then strain into a Martini glass.
