A Lemon Drop Shot is a tart, sweet, and potent shot that is perfect for parties. It is made with vodka, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Some recipes also call for a sugared rim or a sugared lemon wedge for garnish. Here is a simple recipe to make Lemon Drop Shots:
- Fill a shaker with ice cubes.
- Add 1 ounce of vodka, 1/2 ounce of fresh lemon juice, and 1/2 ounce of simple syrup to the shaker.
- Shake until icy cold.
- Strain into a shot glass rimmed with sugar.
- Garnish with a lemon slice and enjoy!
If you dont have simple syrup on hand, you can replace it with sugar. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar to the other ingredients, give the cocktail a good shake in a cocktail shaker before pouring into the shot glasses.
