Ingredients

  • 1 Lemon

  • 60ml Vodka

  • 60ml Limoncello

  • 30ml Triple Sec (e.g. Cointreau)

Method

  1. Rub a cut slice of Lemon around the rim of a Martini Glass and roll the rim in caster sugar to coat the glass in fine sugar.

  2. Fill a cocktail shaker with with ice and shake all the ingredients vigorously, strain into a coupe glass. Finally take a strip of lemon peel and twist it over the glass to spray extra lemon scent onto the cocktail.
