Mirak or Pulcherrima - "beautiful". The second brightest star in the constellation is a beautiful double star in at least a 10cm telescope, consisting of an orange (2.7mag) and blue component (4.9mag) creating a colour contrast, at a distance of 2.9". But you'll need higher magnification and a quiet night. The distance of the system is 200 light years.
