COCKTAIL RECIPE
Vesper
Vesper is a powerful and sophisticated classic cocktail made with gin, vodka and aromatic aperitif wine. It is considered one of the most iconic cocktails of the Martini family thanks to its clean, crisp and balanced character.
The Vesper cocktail is one of the most famous drinks that has passed from the world of literature to bar culture. The cocktail first appeared in Ian Fleming's novel "Casino Royale" published in 1953. James Bond, the main character of the book, describes a special cocktail to the bartender in a casino scene.
Bond describes the recipe for the drink very clearly: he wants it to be made with gin, vodka and Kina Lillet. He also says that the drink should be shaken vigorously and served with a thin lemon peel. This scene has become one of the most famous orders in the cocktail world.
