Julia Child’s Favorite Cocktail… Angosoda comes together with just a few simple ingredients. This cocktail recipe is also known as Angostura Cocktail.

Angosoda

Julia Child was born August 15, 1912. That is approximately 100 years ago today, in Pasadena, California.

The iconic woman who turned Americans on to French cooking and most notably known for the famed dish, boeuf bourguignon, would have been 100 years old today. In celebration of Julia Child’s 100th birthday I introduce you to her favorite cocktail, Angosoda. A recipe featured in Julia Child and Company, her fifth published cookbook. I think this is the way that Julia Child would want her life to be celebrated–clinking glasses and enjoying a cocktail.

Directions

Angosoda

In the words of Julia Child “Always start out with a larger pot than what you think you need.” and that is the case with this drink. Start with a tall glass, filled with ice cubes, and pour the Perrier Sparkling Natural Mineral Water into the glass.

Angosoda

Next, add a dash of Angostura Bitters.

Stir, place a lime on the rim and drink up in honor of Julia Child!

I’d like to share with you a few of my favorite quotes from Julia Child that really sum up cooking and food altogether:

“The only time to eat diet food is while you’re waiting for the steak to cook.”
― Julia Child

“If you’re afraid of butter, use cream.”
― Julia Child

“Always start out with a larger pot than what you think you need.”
― Julia Child

“You don’t have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces – just good food from fresh ingredients.”
― Julia Child

“…no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.”
― Julia Child, My Life in France
