About This Cocktail

The Vesper is James Bond's signature cocktail and an excellent freezer batch candidate. Using the Milk Street method, pour off 10oz from a gin bottle, add vodka and Cocchi Americano. The high ABV keeps it perfectly pourable.

How to Serve

Pour into a chilled martini glass. Express lemon peel over drink.

Pro Tips

  • + Cocchi Americano is the proper substitute for discontinued Kina Lillet
  • + No water needed - this is meant to be spirit-forward
  • + Express a lemon peel over the glass when serving
  • + Use a quality London Dry gin

Avoid These Mistakes

  • - Using Lillet Blanc (it's sweeter than original Kina Lillet)
  • - Adding water or over-diluting
