The history of cinema is full of references, winks, secrets and small hidden treasures that over time end up permeating the collective imaginary.The logo of a box of cigarettes, a can of tomato with the face of a mysterious Indian chief, a jacket that hides the label of a famous fashion brand or, simply, a special cocktail at a peak of a great film, helpedto popularize lifestyles and attitudes that later became part of the cultural heritage.
The eminently masculine dimension of the seventh art, however, caused the latter, alcoholic beverages to be usually associated with the male characters.Photograms of a everlasting Humphrey Bogart listening to the melancholic As Time Goes Byes keys while a bottle of whiskey ends;The Old Fashioned in which Don Draper drowned his sorrows in Mad Men or the classic Martini dry with which James Bond flirted with the feminine hollywood flat already are already an inseparable part of the cinephile universe.But what about them?
Beyond the typical association of drink with the sad, self -destructive, lonely or seductive male, women also starred in hand, some legendary moments in the history of cinema.If today many of them are not so present, it is because of the male stereotypes set and disseminated by an industry that has historically been little egalitarian.

Therefore, we must not forget that the transforming power of the cinematographer also sponsored that Holly popularized the White Angel, one of the most famous cocktails of all time;that the laughing sugar Kane built Marilyn Monroe will awaken in the public the desire to refresh the gaznate with a Manhattan after one of the most famous scenes with skirts and crazy;That New York became the epicenter of Cosmopolitan as a result of Carrie Bradshaw's obsession with this drink in sex in New York or that in women on the edge of a rosy nerve attack of Palma, it will reveal the world that the Bloody Mary removes the hangover.
1.The Audrey Hepburn White Angel
When Holly Golightly walked through Joe Bell's bar he always asked for the same thing: half a glass of vodka and a half of Gin.The result?One of the most powerful cocktails on this list of women who changed the cinema with a glass between hands: White Angel or Angel Blanco.
In addition, the casual Audrey Hepburn, an icon of the rebel and countercurrent woman, also held another of the best known drinks in the film: the Mississippi Punch, a tasty mixture of cognac, whiskey and rum Añejo.Two elegant and intelligent bets released by one of the most independent women (and actresses).Although perhaps the drink that is most remembered is also the simplest and most common of all: the glass of coffee with which he accompanied his cross.

2.Madeleine Lebeau French 75
Although Humphrey Bogart drowned his sorrows with a bottle of whiskey while asking Sam to play once again that song that reminded Paris, one of the most famous cocktails taken in the Rick’s Café was French 75.Specifically, Madeleine Lebeau's character, Rick's lover, always asked for it.It is a refreshing mixture of champagne with Gin, sugar syrup and lemon juice that usually is topped with an elegant Maraschino cherry.

3.Audrey Tautou's hot wine
France has always been one of the most proud countries of its culture, and although consuming hot wine is a tradition of Roman origin generally associated with Christmas, it did not miss the opportunity to spread this eminently European tradition through one of its most international films: Amelie.The favorite drink of the peculiar character of Audrey Toutou was this type of wine that is usually used mixed with sugar and oranges, which is spiced with spices and whose auction is to cook over low heat for hours for hours.

4.Julieta Serrano's Bloody Mary
Spanish cinema has also laid a chair in terms of cocktails, all courtesy of our most international director: Pedro Almodóvar.The drink could not go to match the chromatic palette of one of his best films, women on the verge of a nervous attack.That is why the character of Rossy de Palma, the eccentric Marisa, according to his chillon colored clothing, recommended this drink as the best remedy for hangover before losing knowledge for almost the entire film.
Who has not tried it yet has a pending subject: mixing tomato juice, vodka, lemon, perrins, tabasco, salt and pepper and decorating the explosive set with celery branches.With or without hangover, it is impossible not to remember the fainting Rossy de Palma or Julieta Serrano pointing to camera with her gun while holding her Bloody Mary glass.

5.The Barbra Streisand Menthe Breate
Another product originally from Europe and, this time, born within the French culture: the Green Créme de Menthe Frappé, or what is the same, a mint liquor that is served with a good handful of frosty ice.It was another of the "brews" popular by cinema, this time thanks to the character that Barbra Streisand embodied in Funny Girl, Fannie Brice, an actress and humorist of Jewish origin who became a music star thanks to her participation in her participation inThe popular musical Follies.

6.Marilyn Monroe Manhattan
Everything that surrounds the figure of Marilyn Monroe is marked by a cursed legend aura and mystery.It was one of the great icons of the mid -twentieth century and its tormented life or nothing had to do with the characters that embodied on the big screen.One of his most famous roles was Sugar Kane in with skirts and crazy, the love and smiling member of the music band in which Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis were strained some transvestite.
In one of the sequences of the first half of the film, aboard a train with the rest of the "companions" of travel, Monroe prepared in a bag one of the favorite drinks of those who worship the cocktail bar: Manhattan.Bitter and sweet flavors meet in a drink that mixes sweet vermouth, whiskey and Angostura with a slice of orange and that everyone already associates Jeane Norma.

7.The cosmopolitan of Sarah Jessica Parker
There was a series that made New York in the international epicenter of Cosmopolitan: Sex in New York.Carrie Bradshaw, the well -known protagonist writer to which Sarah Jessica Parker gives life, worshiped this elegant and subtle drink that mixes blueberry juice with liquor of Cintreau, vodka and juice of Lima.It is difficult to dissociate the cosmopolitan of one of the freest, independent and referential female characters of television.

8.Melanie Griffith Tequila
Tequila glas.It happened, of course, in women's weapons, one of the great feminist allegations of the eighties cinema.Between Cup and Tequila Cup and until it reached an intense (and hilarious) drunken.

9.Lauren Bacall's Scotch Mist
Lauren Bacall and, again, Humphrey Bogart, starred in one of the most famous drinks in the history of cinema in eternal dream.Howard Hawks put in them a glass of Scottish whiskey with ice and sat them in an armchair to star in their ingenuity duels, in which she always won.The huge Lauren Bacall, a true star of the film, disarmed detective Philippe Marlowe from Bogart with a Scotch Mist in one hand and a smoking cigarette in the other.

10.Reneé Zellweger Chardonnay
Another of the best known drinks of the big screen was the one that Bridget Jones chose to drown his sorrows when the stereotypes impaished by society did not allow her to feel comfortable with herself.Contrary to what popular logic says, the fame of the film caused, according to several analysis of 2008, that people stop consuming this variety of white wine considerably.
The reason?People associated it with the depression and sadness of Zellweger's character.Sales of another type of wines, on the contrary, fired.It is difficult to discern whether it was a chance or rebound effect, but what is clear is that Bridget Jones's diary helped in the long term to Guardonnay, since in 2018 the most popular drink in the United States was considered in 2018.
