The Midnight Prayer From Employees Only LA Is The Vesper Martini Play James Bond Has Been Waiting For

Midnight Prayer cocktail

Casino Royale is one of our favorite Bond movies. It gave a modern muscular yet emotional twist to the franchise, lending it something new without ruining what we all loved about the series. It’s the same with the Midnight Prayer from Employees Only Los Angeles, a subtle and sexy update to the Vesper Martini created by Adriana Ramos. Made with a powerful combination of gin, vodka, and Lillet, it’s a seductive cocktail will sneak up on the unsuspecting.
