A Glass (Bottle) of Chardonnay

Serve when

Pour it for the 'All By Myself' opening — pajamas, diary, and the defiant solo glass that starts the whole story.

What to drink

Bridget's drink is Chardonnay — the sofa glass of the opening wallow, the fuel of the diary entries, the era's rom-com pour. Serve it the honest way: cold, generous, alongside strong opinions about your own life. Vodka and Chaka Khan optional but canonical.

What to drink

Nineties-to-noughties Chardonnay is the film's house pour and a period detail in a glass — round, golden, unbothered by fashion. Exactly Bridget.

Ingredients

1 bottle Chardonnay, properly chilled
A large glass, filled past advisory levels
A diary, for recording units consumed

Method

Chill hard — sofa Chardonnay is never room temperature.
Pour generously; count it in 'units' for the diary.
Pair with a birthday dinner, blue soup, or the entire opening credits.
