Though Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw may have become synonymous with classy cosmopolitans throughout Sex and The City’s roughly six-year run, our favorite fictional vogue perfected another drink throughout her time on air – a nice-sizzurp-y cup of lean.
Earlier this week, a series of stills from a 2000 episode entitled “All Or Nothing” began making the rounds on Twitter, depicting Bradshaw concocting a cough-syrup-filled smoothing for her flu-ridden pal Samantha Jones.
“Rewatching the episode of Sex and the City where Carrie takes care of sick Samantha and uhhh…. Fanta and cough syrup??” quipped Twitter user @dumbandfunn alongside several photos from the 2000 episode. “Is she making her lean?? Hahahha.”

Though in the show, Bradshaw was merely following a recipe, recreating Jones’ mother’s “cure-all remedy” consisting of “cough syrup and Fanta over ice” – a concoction our protagonist said would become “a lot more appetizing” if served in a “frosted martini glass” – several SATC fans reveled in this recessed recall.
“Carrie was unhinged the entire series,” quipped @stephmariaj, while @rihnaisssance noted how this family recipe made “Samantha being from Florida make[sic] even more sense.”
We’ll drink – some boujee lean – to that.
