Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Vodka
- 2 ounces Limoncello
- 1/2 ounce Lemon Juice freshly squeezed
- Sugar for rim
- Lemon Slice for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Glass:
- Start by rimming your cocktail glass.
- Rub the rim of the glass with a lemon slice to moisten it, then dip the rim in sugar to coat it evenly. This will give a sweet edge to each sip.
- Mix the Cocktail:
- In a shaker, combine 1 ounce of vodka, 2 ounces of Limoncello, and 1/2 ounce of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- Fill the shaker with ice, covering the liquid.
- Shake It Up:
- Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. The shaking not only chills the drink but also mixes the ingredients thoroughly.
- Strain and Serve:
- Strain the mixture into the prepared glass. Make sure to strain out the ice so that your drink remains undiluted and crisp.
- Garnish and Enjoy:
- Garnish with a slice of lemon on the rim or float it on top of the drink for a decorative touch.
