Lemon drop is one of the most iconic cocktails that you should definitely try. This recipe is so easy that you can make it in less than 5 minutes. It’s meant for 1 serving and you can always add more if you’re having friends over.

Ingredients

  • 50 ml vodka
  • 25 ml lemon juice
  • zest of 1/2 a lemon
  • 1 tablespoon white caster sugar
  • 25 ml triple sec
  • ice

Instructions

For the lemon drop cocktail, you will need a cocktail shaker and a martini glass. If you don’t have one you can always use any other cute cocktail glass.

Before you start making your drink place the glass in the fridge. It has to be cold.

Get a small glass and fill it with the finely grated lemon zest and white caster sugar. Mix the two ingredients very well.

Fill the cocktail shaker with the vodka, lemon juice, triple sec and ice.

Start shaking it and stop when the shaker becomes cold.

Get the glass out of the fridge. Use a small plate to add the sugar and lemon zest mix on it.

Put the rim of the glass in water, then dip it in the plate with sugar.

Pour the drink from the shaker into the glass. Decorate with a lemon slice.
