Whenever it comes to Jennifer Coolidge, we can’t help but remember her as Stifler’s Mom in American Pie. Lounging in a tight purple dress while smoking a cigarette, who could forget her milf-y charms? This roles helped establish Coolidge’s signature onscreen (and offscreen) attitude and look. With the upcoming release of A Minecraft Movie, featuring Jennifer Coolidge, we knew we had to honor her film career through a series of cocktails. This first cocktail lends itself to hot moms everywhere, turning a milk punch into a Milf Punch. It’s a little sweet, warming, and creamy all at once. Plus, the anise simple syrup can be saved and used for other cocktails as well.
What is American Pie Featuring Jennifer Coolidge?
If you have not heard of American Pie, that may be for the best. Unless you love B movies, many bouts of laughter, and a little bit of nostalgia for the habits of decades past. These cheap and cheesy (but often delightful) films include inappropriate jokes and party-hard teenage characters. In American Pie’s case (the first of nine movies in the series), four friends agree to lose their virginity before the end of high school. What comes out of this bet is a crazy whirl of girls, drinks, and embarrassing moments. These elements inspire our Jennifer Coolidge cocktail as much as “La Coolidge” herself. Plus, the movie is a cult classic for a reason and features a cast of now-famous actors like Jason Biggs, Chris Klein, Natasha Lyonne, Alyson Hannigan, and Eugene Levy.
