In July 2007, the first episode of the Mad Men series aired. The first frame of the first episode shows people in a bar, mostly men in suits drinking, smoking and talking to pretty women. The shot stops showing a man with his back turned sitting alone at a table. He writes something on a napkin and then addresses the cigarette seller and asks him for his opinion on different brands of cigarettes. When the waiter approaches them and asks if he wants to order something else, he points to his glass and says: “Do this one more time. Old fashioned. ”
That man is Don Draper, and the cocktail he orders, which is generally less well known at the time, is starting to gain popularity around the world from that moment on.
Although most film and television heroes drink alcohol, most of them do not have their own drink, which is considered their stamp. These rare characters from film and television productions, who have their own drinks, can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
Among them is Don Draper and his Old Fashioned; then Carrie Bradshaw and Cosmopolitan cocktail which became extremely popular thanks to the series Sex and the City and Dude from the movie Big Lebowski which regained the popularity of White Russian cocktails. And of course, there’s the famous James Bond replica Shaken, Not Stirred (refers to Martini) that runs through the entire James Bond movie series.
