About this episode
This week we're heading back to Tim Burton's beautifully dark and snow-covered Gotham City for the 1992 masterpiece, Batman Returns! We'll talk about Batman and the iconic villains, Catwoman and The Penguin. We'll discuss Danny DeVito's repulsive yet tragic characterization, Michelle Pfeiffer's electrifying transformation, and the Gothic, Christmas-time aesthetic that makes this sequel unforgettable.
To honor the complexity and dark allure of the city and its feline anti-hero, we're mixing up The Gotham City Cat. This cocktail elevates the classic gin experience by featuring a rich, complex Barrel-Aged Gin. It's a smooth, dangerous, and surprisingly sophisticated drink—just like Selina Kyle herself.
So, put on your cowl (or your best leather), pour a strong one, and get ready to raise a glass to Batman Returns!
Cocktail comes from Barr Hill!
