SHAKEN: DRINKING WITH JAMES BOND AND IAN FLEMING, THE OFFICIAL COCKTAIL BOOK
Shaken: Drinking with James Bond and Ian Fleming, the Official Cocktail Book Hardcover ā May 14, 2019 by Ian Fleming (Author), Fergus Fleming (Foreword) Readers can explore James Bond creator Ian Flemingās writing on the pleasures of drinking and mix themselves fifty delicious cocktails from recipes inspired by his books and developed by award-winning London bar, Swift. Both Bond and Fleming were partial to a stiff drink. In both fiction and real life, cocktails were an important and well-chosen accompaniment to adventure and daring and often relaxing. Fleming made the Martini famous with Bondās ritual of always ordering it āshaken, not stirredā. But in every James Bond book a wide selection of strong, sophisticated and carefully crafted drinks are essential details to the story.
The recipes in Shaken are divided into five categories: Straight Up; On the Rocks; Tall; Fizzy; and Exotic. Sip on inventions such as Smersh, Moneypenny, That Old Devil M and Diamonds Are Forever, as well as classic Bond cocktails such as the Vesperāand, of course, the Dry Martini. Each recipe is illustrated by a stunning full-color photo of the drink and wonderful extracts from Flemingās writingātaken from the passage where the drink was featured or a place, character, or plot that inspired it.
Shaken features a foreword written by the novelistās nephew, Fergus Fleming, as well as plenty of his writing on whisky, gin, rum, and other spirits.
About the Author Ian Lancaster Fleming was born in London in 1908. His first job was at Reuters news agency, after which he worked briefly as a stockbroker before working in Naval Intelligence during World War Two. His first novel, Casino Royale, was published in 1953 and was an instant success. Fleming went on to write thirteen other Bond books as well as two works of nonfiction and the childrenās classic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The Bond books have earned praise from figures such as Raymond Chandler, who called Fleming āthe most forceful and driving writer of thrillers in Englandā and President Kennedy, who named From Russia with Love as one of his favorite books. The books inspired a hugely successful series of film adaptations that began in 1962 with the release of Dr. No. He was married to Ann O'Neill, with whom he had a son, Caspar. He died in 1964.
