1. Cosmopolitan – Carrie Bradshaw
We’ve been watching Carrie and her friends order Cosmopolitans like no other throughout the movies and the TV series. After that point, it was difficult not to associate this drink with the group. If Cosmos are your thing, you might just be channeling your inner Carrie. Bring out the gossip about the city and boys as you sip this one.
Played By: Sarah Jessica Parker
Movie: Sex And The City
2. Old Fashioned – Tony Montana
Tony Montana from Scarface can easily be associated with old-fashioned ways and traditional values. His thirst to go from rags to riches is the narrative we look for. In one scene, Tony passionately declares, “In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.” This dialogue highlights his adherence to traditional notions of success and power, just like the Old Fashioned cocktail adheres to its specific recipe.
Played By: Al Pacino
Movie: Scarface
3. Martini – James Bond
Well, this one may sound self-explanatory but hear us out. It’s not just because he iconically orders this drink in every movie but it’s the reasoning behind why Martini is so directly associated with his character. An explanation was offered in one of Bond’s books where he explains that he developed his drinking habits by ordering cheap, and probably unsafe vodka which stayed with him long after. If you’re a Martini person, you’re probably someone who acts out of habit and enjoys safe options.

4. Daiquiri – Red
The entirety of The Shawshank Redemption is narrated by a character known to us as Red. He’s a soft-spoken and yet seemingly intelligent man. We learned about all the events of the story through his eyes. The Daiquiri is a drink that provides sophistication and elegance. If Daiquiri is your favorite drink, you’re a person of sweet nature with specks of intelligence sprinkled over.
Played By: Morgan Freeman
Movie: The Shawshank Redemption
5. Mimosa – Tom Ripley
Mimosa looks so innocent on the outside, no one to guess what’s in your champagne flute. It’s deceiving to the eye, just like Tom Ripley. As a con artist, Tom creatively finds his way with sweet talking and careful planning. With mimosas, you’re packing a punch of bubbly fun in a glass, hidden skillfully behind the orange juice. We think you might just be good at concealing identities and getting your way.

Movie: The Talented Mr. Ripley
6. Moscow Mule – Indiana Jones
The Moscow Mule cocktail is known for its bold flavors and copper mug presentation, which we think perfectly resonates with the adventurous spirit of Indiana Jones. Just as the cocktail combines vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice for a dynamic taste, Indiana Jones blends intellect, courage, and resourcefulness towards his adventures. Much like the cocktail’s copper mug, which adds a distinct aesthetic, Indiana Jones’s fedora and whip just support his rugged charm. As a Moscow Mule lover, do you resonate with this iconic character?

7. Negroni – The Joker
The Negroni cocktail and the Joker from Batman are like two mischievous pals at a party. They both bring the sass with their bold flavors and intense personalities. Just as the Joker keeps you guessing with his wild antics, the Negroni surprises your taste buds with its unique mix of gin, Campari, and vermouth. In the words of the Joker, “Why so serious,” they’re both the life of the party, leaving you wanting more of their playful and mysterious charm.
Played By: Heath Ledger
Movie: The Dark Knight Rises
8. Manhattan – Hannibal Lecter
If you’re a Manhattan person, you probably like sophisticated drinks and enjoy the concept of “Calm before the storm.” Doesn’t that remind you of Hannibal Lecter? Just as the Manhattan cocktail combines whiskey, vermouth, and bitters to create a rich and layered flavor profile, Hannibal Lecter’s character is multifaceted, with layers of intellect, sophistication, and darkness.
Played By: Anthony Hopkins
Movie: The Silence Of The Lambs
9. Rum And Coke – Captain Jack Sparrow
Do we really need to explain this one? We already know how much pirates love rum. Throughout the series, we can see Jack and other pirates professing their love for rum. This cocktail is a love language for being simple and complex at the same time. If your go-to drink is Rum and Coke, you probably abide by the famous Jack Sparrow quote, “Ah, the rum. A drink fit for a pirate, as black as the darkest night and as sweet as stolen treasure. Why is the rum always gone?”
Played By: Johnny Depp
Movie: The Pirates Of The Caribean
10. Long Island Iced Tea – Forrest Gump
Forrest Gump’s running spree is a lot like the Long Island Iced Tea in that it keeps going without realizing how far it’s going. Forrest’s iconic running isn’t about reaching a specific destination but the journey itself. Similarly, the Long Island Iced Tea combines multiple liquors without giving away its full potential, creating a drink that surprises and delights with each sip. Both are about embracing the moment and enjoying the ride without worrying about the destination. Do you feel like going on a cross-country run after this drink?
Played By: Tom Hanks

Summing Up
So the next time you order your favorite drink in a bar, just know you’re channeling your Hollywood doppelganger. Why not make it special and embody their characteristics? As Dorothy said in The Wizard of Oz, “There’s no place like Hollywood, where your drink choice will now lead you down the yellow brick road to self-discovery in iconic characters.”
