Drink Recipe: Ginger Lemon Drop

Ginger Lemon Drop

I was trying to figure out what cocktail to make using our SKYY Infusions Ginger vodka.  (Usually, I mix the vodka with Fever Tree Ginger Beer to make a super gingery drink.)  I happened to take a look at the hang tag around the neck of the vodka bottle and thumbed through the few recipes that SKYY suggested.  The Ginger Lemon Drop caught my eye.  Who would think that ginger vodka, lemon juice and maple syrup would go together?  It does.

Here's the recipe:

2 oz SKYY Infusions Ginger
1 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 oz maple syrup (or simple syrup)

Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a lemon twist.  (Oops, forgot the lemon twist)

Enjoy!
