Refreshing citrus cocktail, perfect for summer.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups sugar
  • Grated peel of 1 medium lemon (2 to 3 teaspoons)
  • 1/4 cup citrus-flavored or plain vodka
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons orange-flavored liqueur
  • Ice
  • Edible flower
  • 1 cup water
Instructions:
  • Prepare a quick and easy simple syrup by combining equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan over low heat until the sugar has completely dissolved.
  • As syrup cools, mix sugar and lemon peel in a small bowl. Run lemon wedge along martini glass rim, then dip rim in sugar mixture. Freeze glass until needed.
  • Combine vodka, lemon juice, liqueur, 1 1/2 tablespoons Simple Syrup, and a generous handful of ice in a cocktail shaker; shake vigorously until fully blended.
  • Strain into a glass and garnish with an edible flower.
  • In a small saucepan, gently heat water and sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a simmer and the sugar completely melts, approximately 3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow it to cool.
