<\/a>What is a Vesper Martini?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first Vesper drink appeared in 1953 The James Bond Book, Casino Royal written by Ian Fleming. The drink was essentially a martini, made shaken, not stirred. Perhaps you are familiar with this famous line\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The drink was named after a fictional double agent, Vesper Lynd. In the book (and then in the movie), he orders a dry martini served in a deep champagne goblet.
