How Do You Mix A Lemon Drop Shot?
The lemon drop is a commonly ordered shot that most bartenders can mix from memory. Although the shot itself is relatively simple, its finer points, including the method in which it is supposed to be consumed, are a bit more involved. Fill a standard shot glass 90 percent full of vodka. Fill the shot glass the rest of the way with simple syrup. Coat a slice of lemon in sugar by dredging it through the sugar on each side. Feel free to offer a toast to any other drink participants. Consume the shot in one quick, fluid motion, gulping it down instead of sipping it. Bite into the sugar-coated lemon wedge.
