The Kissy Suzuki

The Kissy Suzuki 



The Kissy Suzuki cocktail is named after a fictional character in Ian Fleming's James Bond novel You Only Live Twice.  Kissy Suzuki (at least the literary version) remains the only character who bears James Bond a child.  In the 1967 film version, Kissy is a ninja secret agent and former pearl diver.  Kissy Suzuki was played by Mie Hama who appeared in Playboy magazine becoming the first Asian woman to appear in Playboy.  Now on to the drink!
