The house cocktail at the venerable Floridita bar in Habana Vieja. Measurements are provided above, but head bartender Alejandro Bolívar Rodriguez and his cantinero colleagues prepare the drink by experience and feel, without the use of jiggers. “The blender is like your friend,” Bolívar Rodriguez says. “We add the rum in a slow stream, step by step, to make the right mix. When you look inside the blender, in the middle is a hole—if the hole is closed, the blender is telling you that you haven’t put in enough rum. You add rum until the hole opens, and you wind up with a circle,” he says, making a ring with his thumb and forefinger. “That tells you the ice is ready and the drink is done.”

- Adapted from The Bar-Tender's Guide by Jerry Thomas, 1887.
As with many cocktails from the 1800s, no one knows exactly who invented the recipe or where it originated, though plenty of myths point to the Bay Area and the city of Martinez, as well as the Knickerbocker hotel in New York. What's less questionable is the first mention of the cocktail in print - a reference in O.H. Byron's 1884 Modern Bartender's Guide with a recipe calling for Curaçao and Angostura bitters instead of today's more common mix of Maraschino liqueur and orange bitters. A version also appears in in Jerry Thomas' book in 1887 with Boker's bitters and Maraschino liqueur.
Subtle Old Tom gin anchors the drink, enriched by the soft sweetness of vermouth and rounded out by floral Maraschino liqueur and citrusy orange bitters.
Taking the recipe above, experiment by splitting the vermouth between dry and sweet for added complexity, or add 1/4 oz Ancho Reyes for a playful rendition. Also experiment with 1.5 oz Anchor's Old Tom gin along with 1 oz Alessio Vermouth di Torino.

Made famous by James Bond in Ian Fleming's 1953 novel, Casino Royale. Bond insisted it be shaken and preferred Kina Lillet to Vermouth. He also said that the cocktail was better made with a grain-based Vodka over a potato-based bottling. The Vodka acts as a diluting agent, taking the edge off the gin. Use a softer gin such as Bombay Sapphire to give the drink character.
Kina Lillet was created at the end of the 19th century in France, where wine-based tonics flavored with quinine were popular. Such drinks are known in France as 'quinquinas' due to the addition of quinine, a bitter ingredient that's extracted from the bark of the South American cinchona tree, or 'Kina Kina.' The ingredient acts as a muscle relaxant and has been used for centuries to treat malaria. Kina Lillet was launched in 1895 as an aperitif and tonic and quickly became known as 'the aperitif of Bordeaux.' In addition to the wine and quinine, it consisted of a blend of fruit liqueurs. During the 1920s the company launched Lillet Dry for the English market, which was usually mixed with gin, while the company reduced the prominence of 'Kina' in the name and sometime in the 1930s 'Kina' seems to have been dropped altogether. A further name change occurred in the 1960s, after Lillet Rouge was introduced; the original product became known as Lillet Blanc, a name which is retained today.
The 1950s saw a revival in the fashion for cocktails and Lillet became popular once more in England - 'Everyone enjoys a gin and Lillet' ran the ad - and the drink took off in the United States. This coincided with Ian Fleming getting down to writing his 'spy story to end all spy stories,' which included the recipe for James Bond's first contribution to the cocktail world, the Vesper. The recipe given by Fleming is as follows:
3 Measures Gordon's Gin.
1 Measure Vodka.
1/2 Measure Kina Lillet.
Shake; serve in a deep Champagne Goblet.
Lemon Peel garnish.
Kingsley Amis, in The Book of Bond, claimed that Fleming had made an error in his recipe because the quinine in Kina Lillet would make the drink too bitter and it should be made with 'Lillet Vermouth' instead. Amis was probably referring to Lillet Dry, but what is certainly true is that Bond was a little out of touch - by the time Casino Royale was written the original drink was known simply as Lillet. Unfortunately it is impossible to test Amis' theory today; in 1986 the recipe was changed and the quinine content decreased to reduce bitterness. The result is a fruitier drink with a pronounced orange flavor.
Lillet, classed as an aromatized wine within EU law, is a French aperitif wine from Podensac, a small village south of Bordeaux. It is a blend of 85% Bordeaux region wines (Semillon for the Blanc and Rosé and Merlot for the Rouge) and 15% macerated liqueurs, mostly citrus (peels of sweet oranges from Spain and Morocco and peels of bitter green oranges from Haiti).
The closest present-day analogs to the original Kina Lillet flavor profile are the Swiss-made Tempus Fugit Spirits' Kina L'Aéro d'Or, and the Italian aperitif wine Cocchi Americano.
