Cocktail recipes for the characters and the big feelings of Inside Out 2.
Inside Out 2 hits theaters on June 14, and we’ve made some cocktails for the premiere! The Pixar sequel is a treat for both kids and adults, bringing Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust back to the screen, along with new characters: Ennui, Embarrassment, Envy, and Anxiety. These delightful drinks are inspired by the memorable characters that inhabit the mind of 15-year-old Riley—cocktails for grown-ups only!
Anxiety
What drink would you make to soothe poor beleaguered Anxiety?
- 2 oz Coppercraft Gin
- 1 oz Thatcher’s Organic Blood Orange Liqueur
- 1 oz orange juice
- 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- Ice cubes
- Orange peel, garnish
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the one sprig of rosemary gently with the orange juice. Add gin and Thatcher’s Organic Blood Orange liqueur, and a handful of ice cubes to the shaker. Shake the mixture well for about 15-20 seconds to chill the ingredients. Strain the cocktail into a chilled glass filled with ice cubes. Stick the remaining two rosemary sprigs into glass so they stand straight up.
