The Lemon Drop Martini Mocktail is a favorite for good reason. Refreshing and simple to prepare, it combines lemon juice, simple syrup, and club soda. This mocktail showcases a sharp citrus taste that’s perfectly offset by the sweet syrup and the bubbly soda. It’s an excellent choice for those who opt for non-alcoholic drinks but still seek something extraordinary in their glass. Ideal for any social event or a relaxing night in.

Ingredients
- 1 1/4 ounces Lemon Juice
- 2 1/2 ounces Club Soda chilled or sparkling water
- 3/4 ounce Simple Syrup
Instructions
- Chill the Glass:
- Start by chilling your martini glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the mocktail.
- Mix the Ingredients:
- In a shaker, combine the lemon juice and simple syrup.
- Fill the shaker with ice, covering the liquid completely.
- Shake Well:
- Shake the mixture vigorously for about 15 seconds. The goal is to chill the mixture thoroughly and allow a bit of dilution from the ice, which enhances the drink’s flavors.
- Prepare the Glass:
- Empty the ice water from the martini glass and dry it if necessary.
- Strain the Drink:
- Strain the mixture from the shaker into the chilled martini glass.
- Make sure to strain out the ice so that no extra water dilutes the mocktail.
- Top with Club Soda:
- Gently top off the drink with chilled club soda or sparkling water. This adds a nice effervescence.
- Garnish (Optional):
- Garnish with a lemon twist or a small slice of lemon on the rim of the glass for an extra touch of elegance and a burst of lemon aroma.
- Serve Immediately:
- Serve your Lemon Drop Martini Mocktail immediately to enjoy its crisp, refreshing taste.
