1
Edward, my first cocktail that I have to make is an espresso martini.
2
And I feel like all of the human beings in the world, you might know this piece of information, which was that apparently it was created for either Naomi or Kate.
3
They walked into a bar and said that they wanted a cocktail that would pick me up and me up.
4
I don't know about that, but I'm definitely gonna find out.
5
Please, please.
6
I like that story.
7
We have to know, we need to know the truth.
8
Hi, British Vogue.
9
I'm Emma Watson and this is the ultimate British taste test.
10
I'm excited and terrified, mostly excited, to see if I can do this.
11
I've made copious notes.
12
Look, there's diagrams, there's amounts.
13
This is true to me.
14
I love learning and I love note-taking.
15
We're gonna be making Emma's espresso martini with chocolate.
16
I like sweet things.
17
I'm gonna put a tiny bit of salt in there as well.
18
Step one, making the glass cold.
19
I only found this out yesterday.
20
I'm not gonna lie to you.
21
This is called the pony and this is called the jigger.
22
So we're gonna do one pony of an espresso shot.
23
So this is going in.
24
Then we're also gonna balance that with sugar syrup.
25
Vodka is what we have next.
26
We're gonna do two parts to the other part.
27
Lots of vodka, basically.
28
This is what makes it an Amara espresso martini.
29
This is my twist.
30
is a tiny bit of salt and a little bit of the cacao syrup.
31
25 ml.
32
Okay, loads of ice.
33
Shaking.
34
It comes from the heart, everyone.
35
It's a full body movement.
36
This is a cool fact.
37
Because this gets cold, it's what seals these two things together and it's what stops the liquid coming out.
38
And I should do this to this.
39
And then these teeth also should come apart.
40
Yeah, you did it.
41
Then I'm gonna take the ice that's been cooling my glass out.
42
This is called Hawthorn.
43
So this kind of sits on top of your shaker.
44
Wait, I'm gonna drink.
45
God, I can't believe I'm actually doing this.
46
The three little coffee beans that go on top of an espresso martini.
47
One is for health, one is for wealth, and one is for happiness.
48
And that is an Emma Espresso Martini.
49
So the reason I'm excited to make this cocktail is because I get to crush ice.
50
I'm taking off my shoe because there's no rolling pin.
51
I need to crush this ice with something and I figure this is actually, sorry Misha, maybe the best thing that I can do this with.
52
Actually, this is better than a rolling pin.
53
I'm not sure if Misha had this in mind when she designed this shoe, but I can attest it's an excellent kitchen implement.
54
Thanks Prada.
55
This is a very English drink because it's made with blackberries, blackberry liqueur, which is the float, what's kind of like sits on top and it like trickles down.
56
This is Renee.
57
It's the gin that my brother and I made.
58
I can't really remember how much gin is needed for this.
59
I'm going to just sort of make it up.
60
Yeah, that looks about right.
61
Then I'm going to add sugar syrup.
62
My father makes wine and has made wine since before I was born actually.
63
Alex had this amazing idea, take the skins and make them into like an incredible gin.
64
It's also sustainable.
65
We're taking something that would have just been thrown away and making something new out of it, which is why we called it Renee which means rebirth.
66
We're gonna put ice in here now.
67
I have so much respect now for bartenders because there's so much work.
68
It's exhausting.
69
Like me shaking one cocktail I'm like great that's me done for the night.
70
Story story story story story Prada crushed ice.
71
My only other hidden talent if cocktail making is considered a talent of mine now.
72
I am really really really good table tennis and spent many many hours playing Dan Radcliffe and Rupert Grint that was
73
how I misspent my youth this is the blackberry liqueur look how pretty it is you put a blackberry on top isn't that cute ta-da it's really good
74
I'm gonna make a foamy gin sour it's gonna be an emma gin sour because I'm gonna add a splash
75
of my dad's wine in it shaker two parts gin one part lemon one part sugar and the idea with the sugar and the lemon is you're always
76
trying to balance that like bitter and that sweetness all the time I'm gonna start with my lemon this is so fun I feel like I'm the host of my own cooking show or something.
77
My brother and I cook together.
78
We host dinner parties.
79
That's my idea of bliss.
80
And actually I'm really lucky I have friends that cook will cook for me as well.
81
Okay we've done one pony of the lemon.
82
We're gonna do one pony of the sugar.
83
Make it perfectly balanced.
84
Two parts of Renee.
85
okay this is the fun bit or the like bit where things could go wrong which is the egg
86
I'm gonna crack my egg so you want the egg white and not the yolk pass the yolk back and forth between the two
87
oh I'm making a mess but I'm doing it absolutely crushing it so this is my dad's wine Papa Watson I call him thanks Papa
88
Bear deeply deeply loved by my father is this wine was the reason that I slept in a very cold bedroom when I was a child because he used to store the wine bottles at the back of mine and Alex's room.
89
So we would often complain that it was cold and he'd say, well, you've got to keep the wine at a certain temperature.
90
I think that's probably the definition of a first world problem.
91
Don't want to ruin the Prada.
92
I think I did it.
93
Yes!
94
Oh look, it's foamy and eggy.
95
There.
96
That's not my fault, by the way.
97
That was the camera.
98
Now we're gonna do the real shake.
99
Loads of ice.
100
In fact, I was supposed to have this on my shoulder the whole time, so now it's just been earned.
101
Let's see how we did.
102
Is it foamy?
103
Look, it's foamy!
104
It's happened again.
105
I'm really sorry, by the way.
106
People who do this professionally will be watching me like, this is painful.
107
I don't feel like Hermione Granger has a cocktail, do you know what I mean?
108
But you know, maybe in the later years, yeah, when things got really stressful and hairy, when she had loads of responsibility and a really stressful job.
109
Yeah!
110
Into a lemon peel heart, which is gonna go on top.
111
It's good.
112
It's not my best.
113
So this is my brother, Alex Watson, and we're gonna see if we can make a Vesper martini in less than three minutes.
114
Go.
115
Time's here.
116
Ah!
117
Everyone is about to see how competitive Emma is.
118
You're not making your glass child, so...
119
Okay.
120
Hodka.
121
Half a pony.
122
Just half.
123

125

126
Three farts gin.
127

128
I'm gonna have to re- I'm gonna have to re-go.
129

130
right in my ear yes i think i'm gonna win this i can't believe it this is outrageous i've been stitched up i want a It's happening.
131
Okay we're gonna do the garnish because my vesper is done.
132
Oh okay as I'm doing this I don't know if you can see the aroma coming off the peel.
133
Once you've got the peel off you can do this on the bottom of the glass.
134
If you squeeze this way you get all these aromas that sit on the top so I'm making that garnishy bit.
135
This is my favorite bit.
136
I beat you.
137
Yeah, but mine's gonna be prettier yours doesn't have any aromas.
138
No guys look.
139
Delicious.
140
Look at this.
141
Come on.
142
We know who's his prettiest.
143
It is good.
144
It's a stiff drink though but I like it.
145
It's good.
146
My glass is colder.
147
This is what happens.
148
For any younger brothers who are just sort of coasting along like me and you have an overachieving sister Let's stick together because it's tough out here.
149
Love you.
150
Yeah.
151
So we're going to make the Emma Spritz.
152
My grandmother, Frida, used to collect elderflower and make elderflower cordial.
153
So it includes elderflower cordial for my grandma.
154
It's got my dad's wine in it and then it's got my brother and my gin in it.
155
one of Renee, one of Elderflower Cordial.
156
This, which is made with this blue flower called John Tien, and it makes something called Suze.
157
We're going to do just a dash, a couple of dashes maybe.
158
Splash of Damien Watson.
159
That was a bit more of a splash, but all good.
160
I've been directing and writing, which has been really amazing.
161
It started during COVID, and I just realized how much I loved it and that I wanted to keep doing that.
162
And so actually studying now as well.
163
To direct something that I'd written one day, that would make me pretty excited.
164
I don't see myself as having stepped away from acting.
165
I just see myself as wanting to expand what I do and being able to be in things that I have written or directed or produced.
166
To really be at the start of a project takes time.
167
Films can be decades in the making, finding it and writing it and putting it together.
168
I don't see it as a closing down, I see it as an opening up.
169
Bit more ice, bit more soda water, go to the top.
170
You wanna just pull the Rene up from the bottom, but no stirring guys.
171
This cocktail, the thing that makes it made by me is the blue flower.
172
Flowers are very important and very big part of my life.
173
If you know me, then you know that there are flowers everywhere all the time.
174
This cocktail is very special because I feel like It's got my grandma in it, it's got my dad in it, it's got my brother in it, it's got me in it.
175
It's like truly a Watson creation.
176
This is the best one.
177
I'm Emma Watson.
178

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
