Lemon Drop Martini


· It was such a hot day out today it reminded me of some nice cool and refreshing drinks. I personally love Martinis a lot but not everyone does but if you do here is another one for you it’s called a lemon drop martini. You will need vodka any will work but I prefer six vodka also lemons, lemon juice and triple sec also optional is sugar. At some stores you can get lemon flavored sugar to edge your glass in this is what I personally like the best. First you take your lemon and cut it then you get the edge of your rim wet with the lemon by putting it on the edge and going around the glass then you dip it into your lemon sugar. Next get your drink shaker out and put

· 1.25 oz. of six vodka (or your choice)

· .25 oz. triple sec

· .75 oz. lemon juice

Then shake it up and pour it into your glass and enjoy. This is a great drink to just have when you are lying out by the pool since it has the nice refreshing taste similar to lemonade. I was first introduced to them at a friend’s birthday party where she was talking about how amazing they were so I had her make me one and it really was as good as she said. Also there are many other recipes out there and you can tweak any recipe to your liking also some stores sell lemon drop martini mix so if you are having a party it might be easier to just pick that up and add you choice of alcohol to it. Well hope you will enjoy one soon!
