Pro Tips

🎬 1971 Film Reference

Named after the Gene Hackman film. The drink gained popularity in the 1970s as a sophisticated after-dinner sipper.

🥃 Ratio Flexibility

The classic is equal parts, but many prefer more cognac (2:1 ratio) for a less sweet, more spirit-forward drink. Adjust to taste.
