Steps:
- Bring sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, bring mixture to a simmer, and cook, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves. Let cool slightly, pour into a heatproof vessel, and chill at least 35 minutes.
- Purée simple syrup and arugula in a blender until liquefied. Using a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth-lined colander, strain mixture into an airtight container and chill.
- Combine gin, vodka, lemon juice, salt, and 1/2 oz. arugula simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice and stir until outside of shaker is frosty, about 30 seconds. Strain into a chilled Nick and Nora or coupe glass.
VESPER MARTINI
While most martinis are stirred, here we shake it up to open up the flavours. We've used a Bordeaux-blend vermouth, with aromas of fruit, honey and pines

THE VESPER
Gin or vodka? The Vesper - which first appeared in Ian Fleming's novel ''Casino Royale'' - lets you have it both ways. Lillet stands in for its close cousin, dry vermouth. I normally stir rather than shake, but, in this case, I defer to James Bond.

VESPER
The original recipe for the Vesper was created not by a bartender but by popular spy novelist Ian Fleming. In Fleming's 1953 book Casino Royale, Agent 007 instructs the bartender to prepare him a Martini with "Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it's ice cold, then add a large, thin slice of lemon." Bond named this drink after Vesper Lynd, his first love interest in the series. Kina Lillet vermouth, with its flavor notes of quinine, no longer exists, so we replaced it with Lillet Blanc and a dash of Angostura bitters. We opted for a blend of Charbay clear vodka and Plymouth Navy Strength gin to finish off our interpretation. This is the cocktail that introduced the phrase "shaken, not stirred," which changed Martini drinking forever. Thank you, Mr. Bond.
