Background and Origins of
Vesper Martini
The Vesper Martini, also known as the Vesper, was immortalized by James Bond in Ian Fleming's first 007 novel, Casino Royale. The cocktail is a sophisticated blend of gin, vodka, and Kina Lillet (a type of French aperitif). The drink was invented by Fleming and named after the fictional double agent Vesper Lynd. Bond orders this cocktail with his characteristic precision, specifying, "Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it’s ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel." This iconic order has cemented the Vesper Martini as a symbol of elegance and intrigue. The Vesper Martini's allure lies in its potent combination of spirits, delivering a strong yet smooth flavor profile. It captures the essence of Bond's world – refined, complex, and with a touch of danger. Today, the Vesper remains a popular choice for those looking to channel their inner 007 and experience a piece of literary and cinematic history.
