Lemon drop time!

November 28th, 2007

Liberace lemon drop mix

I’m so enjoying my martini right now, I thought I’d share my recipe. 

Lemon Drop Martini 

1 ounce Absolut Citron
1 ounce fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon fine sugar
fine sugar to rim glass

Pour the Absolut Citron into a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes. Add lemon juice and one teaspoon of sugar. Shake vigorously. Use a lemon wedge to wet the rim of a martini glass and dip in superfine sugar. Strain into a sugar-rimme­­­d cocktail glass. Garnish with a lemon twist, and serve.

Cheers!

    It’s been a decade+ since I had a Lemon Drop; got psychically scarred after the inept bartender at the Lone Palm (SF) inadvertently rimmed the glass with {gaaak} salt. However, I’m ready to be HEALED!

    LOVE IT!!! Lemon Drop Martinis are one of my faves. I corrupt all of my friends with their magic. And my current obsession is an Amaretto Sour. Yum.
