Lemon Martini

Let's play with a little more liquor for a minute!

I'm a fan of girlie martinis - the ones with vodka, something sweet, and NO GIN! A Lemon Martini is a lovely accompaniment to a hot summer's day!

ice cubes
1.5 shots Citron vodka
1 shot fresh lemon juice
1/4 shot sugar syrup
1/4 shot Cointreau
3 drops orange bitters
orange twist for garnish

Combine all in a cocktail shaker, shake until frosty, and strain into a chilled martini glass.

Best enjoyed outside, in the fresh air and sunshine, with a book in the other hand!
