Description
 A bright, tropical twist on the classic lemon drop cocktail. Fresh pineapple juice and zesty lemon make this drink irresistibly refreshing.
Ingredients
- 3 oz pineapple juice
- 2 oz additional pineapple juice (for adjusting sweetness)
- 1 oz fresh lemon juice
- 2 oz vodka
- 1 oz simple syrup
- Ice cubes
- Sugar, for rimming glass
- Lemon wedge or pineapple slice, for garnish
Instructions
- Chill a martini or coupe glass in the freezer for 10 minutes. Run a lemon wedge around the rim and dip in sugar for a pretty, sweet finish.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine pineapple juice, lemon juice, vodka, and simple syrup. Fill with ice and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds until chilled.
- Strain into the prepared glass. Garnish with a pineapple slice or lemon wedge and serve immediately.
Notes
For a mocktail, replace vodka with sparkling water or lemon-lime soda. To make ahead for parties, mix the juices and syrup, refrigerate, and shake individual servings with ice when ready.
