Mike: “Is that for me?”
Dexter: “It’s for Sam, you want one?”
Mike: “You know how I feel about my grandmother but I’d sell her for a drink.”
Dexter: “Uncle Willie’s in the pantry doing weird and wonderful things with healing waters. Tell him you’d like one of the same.”
Mike: “Can I ask for two?”
Dexter: “Keep going till you run out of grandmothers.”
Mike: “I’ll be drinking a long time.”
“High Society” (1956)
Although I was always rather partial to Miss Imbrie (Celeste Holm, or better yet: Ruth Hussey in “The Philadelphia Story” (1940)), this drink is certainly capable off toppling the Goddess off her pedestal:
- 1 ¾ oz Cognac
- ⅔ oz White crème de menthe
Pour in a mixing glass with ice, stir and strain into a cocktail glass. May also be served on rocks in a rocks glass.
