A delicious cocktail to behold, but also beautifully strong: like the actress to whom it was dedicated, beloved diva of the silent film and wife of Douglas Fairbanks, reckless protagonist of cape and sword films (together in the photo). A former child prodigy full of curls and smiles, she won an Oscar and then became a skilled producer and businesswoman, hosting the company's crème in her Beverly Hills villa
