Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Lemon Drop Cocktail.
Step 1
Start by preparing your glass. Pour a thin layer of sugar onto a small, shallow plate. Take a fresh lemon wedge and moisten the rim of your margarita glass with it. Now, dip the moistened rim into the sugar, coating it well. Set the glass aside and admire your handiwork!
Step 2
Next, grab a cocktail shaker and fill it with ice. Pour in the fresh lemon juice, followed by the 2 teaspoons of sugar, the vodka, and the triple sec. Secure the lid on the shaker and give it a good shake until the outside feels frosty. This is where the magic happens!
Step 3
Once your mixture is well chilled, it's time to serve. Strain the cocktail into your beautifully prepared margarita glass. Take a moment to appreciate the vibrant color and the sweet aroma before you take that first sip. Cheers!
