Glass Guide- Shot Glass

Lemon Drop shots are similar to Tequila shots. It is more about the process than actually mixing anything together. The lemon and sugar give this shot the real sour kick you'd expect from the name. You can also try the Lemon Drop Martini.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz vodka
  • lemon wedge
  • sugar

Preparation:

  1. Pour vodka into a shot glass.
  2. Coat a lemon wedge with sugar.
  3. Drink the shot of vodka.
  4. Follow up immediately with a bite into the sugary lemon.

Alternatively, coat the inside of a shot glass with lemon juice and pour sugar on top of the liquid. Shake out any loose sugar and juice. This leaves a sour, sugar coated shot glass that you then pour the vodka into and shoot.
