A Tanqueray Martini with a Twist Stars as a Pivotal Catalyst in MGM's House of Gucci Film

Lady Gaga Will Be Drinking a Ton of Tanqueray Martinis in ‘House of Gucci’

Want to know what Lady Gaga’s new drink of choice is? Look no further than her latest film, House of Gucci, which features the star sipping on Tanqueray’s new martini with a twist throughout.

In an enticing first-meeting scene between the film’s two main characters, viewers are given an up-close look at Maurizio Gucci, the fashion mogul played by Adam Driver, crafting the perfect Tanqueray martini with a twist, which the glamorous Patrizia Reggiani, his future ex-wife played by Lady Gaga, has ordered to her liking. Her martini is shaken using Tanqueray London Dry, served up in a vintage coupe martini glass and garnished with a simple, yet elegant lemon twist. The scene is a pivotal moment in the film as it foreshadows their destined love affair to come and fall from grace. Jared Leto, Jeremy Irons, Jack Huston, Salma Hayek and Al Pacino also star in the Gaga-helmed film, each playing a role in the battle for control over the famed fashion house of Gucci.

“This was an incredibly special project to work on with Tanqueray in support of the House of Gucci film,” commented Luke Scott, CEO, Ridley Scott Creative Group. “The scene depicting the Tanqueray Martini with a Twist in House of Gucci is a key moment of the movie, and we were delighted to explore this to create content to complement the film release.”

In celebration of the film integration, Tanqueray will be launching an exciting Tanqueray Martini with a Twist cocktail kit through CocktailCourier.com later this month. The kit will include all the ingredients needed to mix-up the signature martini at home, along with chic barware and a custom House of Gucci co-branded cocktail tray. Fans of the film will be able to purchase the kit for delivery direct to their home in the month following the film premiere so they can sip just like Lady Gucci herself.
