I never fail to delight guests at headquarters by offering them a cocktail complete with a 007 swizzle stick - particularly if it is served in a 007 martini glass. These and other items (Yes, that's a garter belt) were commissioned in 1987 by Martini & Rossi for a series of James Bond nightclub promotions which I was selected to host in the San Francisco area. The first Dalton film was the tie-in for this promotion, during which Martini & Rossi was promoting the use of their vermouth. They came up with something called the "007 Cocktail", the exact blending of which evades me, though I recall it was rather a Cosmopolitan made with vermouth.
