#100DaysOfCocktails - Day 59 - Espresso Martini
Dick Bradsell was approached by a young lady in his London bar with one request: give her something that will "wake me up and [expletive] me up." This cocktail is the one he created in his London bar for that purpose. While I may disagree with this being a Martini, I understand why it was named as such. Considering the flavor profile, I can give it a pass.
#100DaysOfCocktails - Day 44 - Pépa
Pépa Bonafé was a silent screen actress for sixteen years. Her most famous role, however, may be the subject of a poster for Art Deco artist Jean Carlu. She is also the namesake of a vermouth based cocktail from Saveur Magazine. It is fortified with cognac and vodka, which #100DaysOfCocktails discovered creates a smooth ride at the end of every sip.
#100DaysOfCocktails - Day 30 - The Cosmopolitan
Sex and The City made the Cosmopolitan a staple of the late 1990's and early 2000's bar scene. It was polished up by Dale DeGroff in the Rainbow Room and served to stars like Madonna, but it has its roots far before those luminaries put there hands on it. #100DaysOfCocktails ends the classic period with a very modern classic.
