Tomb Raider

Tomb Raider might be the name of a video game and movie franchise, along with the nickname of the fictional character Lara Croft, but this cocktail was named in honor of Angelina Jolie, so it squeezes onto the list.

The cocktail itself was created in Cambodia at a restaurant called Red Piano. Angelina Jolie was in Cambodia filming the Tomb Raider movie at the time and the drink has remained an attraction from that point on.

You could try the cocktail at home too. It relies on half an ounce of vodka, 1.5 ounces of Malibu rum, three ounces of pineapple juice, and a little soda water. This creates a tropical cocktail that goes down a treat.

A simpler variation of the cocktail uses one part vodka, one part rum, and one part pineapple juice. This version ends up being quite a bit stronger, which could be a good thing, depending on the context.
