It is well known that I prefer my cocktails to have a higher ratio of sour to sweet usually I’ll mix a 2:1 ratio. You can also select “Metric” measurements in the recipe card below to see these numbers.I love this lemon drop martini because it is slightly sour and oh so lemony, which makes it a refreshing and satisfying cocktail to have in your repertoire. In a hurry and want simple measurements for just one drink? No problem! Just use this as a guide: What are the exact measurements for one drink? Using this method, the drink will taste the same no matter what size you make it. When making the drink you could interpret “1 part” as “1 cup” (or “1/2 part” to “1/2 cup.”) If the recipe says “1/2 part” you’d fill the shot glass halfway so that it’s “1/2 standard shot glass.” OR, let’s say you wanted to make enough drinks for a few friends. So then when the recipe says “1 part” you would interpret that amount as “1 standard shot glass” full. I know this can be a little confusing at first, but I’ve found the best way to explain it is this: Recipes that measure in parts usually mean it’s written so that you can adjust the size of the martini to whatever size you need but still keep the ratio of the ingredients correct.įor example, let’s say you wanted to make one drink – this typically means you’re using 1 standard shot glass for measuring.

It was an absolutely perfect addition to my evening chill-out routine after a long, especially warm day. Limoncello is just too good not to enjoy it in all possible forms.Īnd as for how this Lemon Drop Martini turned out? This isn’t the first time I’ve made a recipe with limoncello – just check out these limoncello cupcakes or the limoncello dressing on this fruit salad – and I guarantee it won’t be the last time. It’s like a drinkable lemon drop candy, and made all the better by it being a liqueur. How can you not love it once you’ve tried it? I’ve been a big fan of limoncello ever since a good friend of ours introduced me to it years ago – but then, who isn’t a fan of limoncello? Well, it means that I’ll still need plenty of chilled beverages to cool down my evenings with, and this lemon drop martini is my latest obsession. So, what does all this weather chit-chat mean for you? ![]() It’ll be months before I’ll be able to experience the joy of a crisp fall breeze. We may be a few inches away from the start of a new school year (and the beginning of Fall and Halloween and pumpkin spice and OMG a whole new year) but the heat is still blazing here in Phoenix. And for better or for worse, these 100+ temperatures will be lingering around for us well into September. ![]()
