    I made a variation of this... 45ml vodka, 45ml lemon juice, 15ml peach schnapps, 15ml sugar syrup... rimmed with vanilla sugar... it's quite delicious

    Try adding a little lemonade mix powder to the sugar on the rim. Just gives it an extra lemon kick

    Hahaha! I dig the slo-mo with the shaker twirl! Also, though I cannot vouch for the other 49 states, I can attest that in my early and mid 20s, I bought many a Lemon Drop shot (and Red Snapper shot) when hitting on ladies at the bar. Didn't always work, but the lady folk seemed to like them. Keep up the good work, chief!

    are you double straining because your lemon juice is pulpy? because typically i only double strain if i've had to muddle something.

    This is how I make mine when I don't have any Absolut Citron. As I understand it the original Lemon Drop and Cosmopolitan were both made using Absolut Citron.

    OK probably because im canadien but I use maple syrop to change cocktails taste. It really adds something. Since it's sweeter I advice you to use a little less. Lemon drops with à little 7up on top are awesome if you want a less alcoholic cocktail.

      There's a similar drink you can make if you prefer lime. It's called a Key Lime Martini which contains vodka, coconut rum (like Malibu) and lime juice.

  • @CocktailHistory
    @CocktailHistory 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The lemon drop and kamikaze shots are both really obnoxiously popular among college kids here in the states. I say obnoxiously because they would rather take one of these shots than ever experience a good cocktail

      Make 1 and measure the volume. Then, 1 gallon / drink volume = the multiplier you need for each ingredient.

      The metric system (millilitres) is used by every country in the world except two. It’s a VERY simple and easy conversion 👉 1oz = 30ml.
