Who Dropped the Lemon?

 To me, the most satisfying drink in the world is the Martini. But, on a hot day, I am also partial to the tang of a good Margarita. There is a relative newcomer in town called a Lemon Drop, and this sort of falls between the two of them. It has a wonderful caustic sharpness which seems to make the whole world pukker around you. I think it should have been called the Pukka Pounce. Here  is how you assemble a posse of them.

  INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lemonade (make sure its a good one)
1.5 oz Citrus Vodka
1/2 oz Triple Sec

  Wet the rim of a martini glass with lemon juice and dip top of glass in fine sugar. Put all ingredients into a shaker with ice and shake at least 63 times. Pour into glass.

  Cheers!!! Stand by to be pukkered.
