Pucker up for this sour cocktail that makes a great dessert drink. You can enhance the citrus flavor by adding 1/4 oz Cointreau and using only 1/2 tsp sugar syrup. For the more adventurous, there is also a Lemon Drop shooter.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz vodka
  • 3/4 oz lemon juice
  • 1 tsp sugar syrup
  • lemon twist for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the vodka, lemon juice and sugar syrup into a shaker with ice cubes.
  2. Shake well.
  3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
  4. Garnish with the lemon twist.

I substitute the unpredictable tasting, labor intensive, and not always handy, lemon twist with a ""lemon garnishz"" from the Garnishz Company. The soft, sweet fruit slice is a perfect complement to any lemon drop recipe.
