Which Martini Cocktail beginning with ‘V’ was famously ordered by 007 Spy James Bond?⠀
answer = Vesper

Many are answering "Vodka Martini", but see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesper_(cocktail)
The Vesper was invented and named by Ian Fleming in the 1953 James Bond novel Casino Royale.
The Recipe: Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, add a large thin slice of lemon peel, then shoot somebody evil.

1st Prize: 1 night stay with Bed and Breakfast and an 18ct gold South Sea Pearl necklace and pearl earrings.
2x R/U prizes of Pearl earrings.
