Casino Royale is the movie where Bond comes up with the Vespa drink. At first he didn’t know what to name it, then he tells Vesper he named it Vespa because “once you taste it, it’s all you want to drink.”

Neil: Close, but no cigar (which is sort of appropriate given that Bond isn’t allowed to smoke them anymore). It’s Vesper.
