THE VESPER
Gin or vodka? The Vesper - which first appeared in Ian Fleming's novel ''Casino Royale'' - lets you have it both ways. Lillet stands in for its close cousin, dry vermouth. I normally stir rather than shake, but, in this case, I defer to James Bond.

VESPER COCKTAIL
Invented by James Bond in the 1953 novel Casino Royale, the vesper today uses Lillet Blanc since Kina Lillet is no longer made. The resulting cocktail is delicious and potent.
