Lemon Drop
Vodka sour, sugar rim. Tastes like candy if you miss the lemon.
A double scales every liquid. Garnish stays one. Open Double to see the pour.
The pour
One drink. Martini · 6–8 oz. Ice: none in the glass.
Vodka
2 oz
Cointreau
½ oz
Lemon juice
¾ oz
Simple syrup
½ oz
How
- Wet half the rim with lemon, dip in sugar.
- Shake all with ice. Fine-strain into the glass.
Garnish
Sugar rim. Lemon wheel or a twist.
Tips
- Deep Eddy Lemon already sweetens. Cut the syrup to ¼ oz.
- Citrus vodka plus extra lemon is loud in a good way.
The double
Two of every pour, wine glass. Sugar rim still one pass.
Sour and stirred rule: every liquid × 2, garnish × 1, bigger glass.
