Cocktail Recipe ∞ Lemon Drop III

This one is worth the extra work! I run whole lemons through a Juiceman®, which produces a thick juice that requires diluting equal parts with water. Makes a generous drink I like to put in a fiesta glass.

Ingredients

• 3 fluid ounces fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons white sugar, or as needed
• 2 fluid ounces vodka
• 1 fluid ounce triple sec

Cooking Directions

1. Pour 1/4 to 1/2 inch of sugar onto a small, shallow plate. Moisten the rim of a margarita glass with a wedge of lemon, dip the moistened glass into the sugar; set aside.
2. Pour the lemon juice, 2 teaspoons of sugar, vodka, and triple sec into a cocktail shaker over ice. Cover, and shake until the outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into the prepared margarita glass, and serve.
