Vesper

Ian Fleming created this riff on the martini for James Bond in Casino Royale. The result is a dangerously smooth concoction. Be careful.

3 oz. Gin
1 oz. Vodka
1/2 oz. Lillet

Mr. Bond apparently loved enormous drinks; cutting it down in size may be a good idea.

Combine in an ice-filled glass and stir for 15-20 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a lemon twist.

Enjoy.
