Author Jeffery Dever's latest tome, "007 Carte Blanche," places James Bond in the present; accordingly, his drink of choice has been similarly updated. The new James Bond cocktail, called The Carte Blanche, contains two shots of Crown Royal whisky, a half-measure of triple sec and two dashes of Angostura bitters garnished with an orange twist.

We tried making this new cocktail recipe after reading the book, and we did not care for it.  It will definitely not replace a perfectly made martini.
