Lemon Drop Martini's, Oprah's All Time Favorite

These are seriously the most delicious martinis you will ever drink.  This has been one of Oprah's Favorite Drinks for years and if you have never had them, you're in for a treat.   Even people who don't normally drink alcohol love them.  They're the perfect girl's night out drink, the perfect party drink, the perfect just because... drink, they are a spring/summery concoction of puckery goodness that packs a whallop of a punch  😜

Servings: Serves 2

Ingredients

Juice of 6 lemons
4 tablespoons sugar
6 fresh mint leaves
4 shots vodka
Ice in shaker

1 sugar-rimmed martini glass, coat rim first with lemon juice, then dip in sugar.  

You can also pulverize lemon drop candy and dip the rim in the crushed candy instead of sugar.

Directions

Mix lemon juice, sugar and vodka in a martini shaker filled with ice. Shake well and pour into sugar-rimmed martini glass. Garnish with mint.

Notes:

If you don't want to juice all the lemons, you can buy Minute Maid Frozen Lemon Juice, it works great. I'm not talking about lemonade concentrate, it's this.
