Tips for customizing lemon drop shots
Make raspberry lemon drop shots by shaking 2 parts vodka with 1 part lemon juice, 1 part raspberry puree, and ice, then straining into a shot glass
Before serving, run a lemon wedge around the edge of the shot glass, then dip it into sugar to create a sugar rim
Boost the lemon flavor by adding 1 part limoncello to 2 parts vodka
If you’d like to use simple syrup (or honey simple syrup), add 1 part simple syrup, 2 parts lemon juice, and 4 parts vodka to a shaker with ice, then strain into shot glasses
Use lemon or citron vodka for even more citrus flavor
