Lemon-Drop Cocktail
- 6 oz. Absolut Citron (or similar lemon-infused vodka)
- 3 oz. Limoncello (Caravella or the difficult to find Finamore)
- 4 oz. Orange Liquour (Grand Marnier or Cointreau)
- 8 oz. freshly squeezed lemon juice -- sweetened to taste
- 4 lemon wedges (or wheels)for garnish
- 2 juicy lemon wedges for muddling
- Prepare four 10-12 oz. "old-fashion" or "highball" glasses by rubbing rims with lemon wedge and dipping in super-fine sugar (or Lemon-Drop rimmer)-- fill each glass 2/3 full with cracked ice...then, add lemon wedge garnish. Place two lemon wedges into a large (28 oz.) cocktail shaker with three ounces of Limoncello -- muddle gently to release oils from lemon skins. Add one cup cracked ice to shaker. Add vodka and orange liquour -- top with (sweetened) lemon juice. Shake vigorously -- strain into prepared glasses. Enjoy!
