Frank Langella’s Oscar nomination comes for his portrayal of former President Richard Nixon in the film Frost/Nixon. Nixon’s favorite drink was the Mai Tai, a festive rum cocktail that gained popularity in Polynesian-style restaurants during the mid-20th century. The addition of Pimm’s No. 1 Cup, an English gin-based beverage with the subtle flavors of citrus and spice, is a nod to Sir David Frost, whose famous interview with Nixon was the basis for the movie.
