Alfie Bonus Bits
The Alfie Cocktail, and extra recipes from Michael Caine, Jane Asher and Millicent Martin
My other half, Mr Rathbone has a lot of lovely ephemera relating to Alfie, so I thought I’d share it with you all…
He is also very good at doing an impression of Michael Caine so I invited him to do the cocktail demo for us this month. He’ll be rustling up an Alfie Cocktail while I laugh in the background.
The provenance of the cocktail most bandied around as an Alfie has been hard to find. It contains lemon vodka, triple sec and pineapple juice.
I’ve drawn a blank so if anyone knows where and when this one was invented, I’d love to hear about it.
A cocktail demo follows for my lovely paid subscribers, as does a smattering of movie star recipes for you to rustle up in celebration of Michael and a couple of his birds in Alfie.
