(PCM) Cocktails named after the rich and shameless are nothing new – what could be more decadent than the lifestyles of our favourite celebrities, after all? We’ve collected some fabulous recipes that were concocted in honour of all sorts of entertainers, ranging from David Bowie to Dita Von Teese.
We’ve mixed them up with a few imaginary cocktails that we think would be perfect for those celebrities who are perhaps past their best – can you separate the actual cocktails from our made up ones – there’s definitely a clue in working out who’s still cool and who is best left behind…
So, next time you’re at your favourite club or having a private party integrating playing online at http://www.jackpotcapitalcasino.com and want to start the evening with style, you know exactly what to offer or ask for – and what not to! You never know, if you’re lucky you might just bump into the celebs themselves sipping on their very own cocktail before they get stuck into their high rolling roulette game!

Created by The Anchor Bar, Soho, New York, in honour of Bill Murray who popped in for a drink once, this is apparently extremely popular – much like Bill himself.

THE PRINCE
Created for the young Jacko himself, Prince Jackson, this is a sweet treat perfect for the younger cocktail aficionados – but don’t let them have too many, it’s pretty lethal…
