The Lemon Drop Cocktail is the perfect combination of sour and sweet. I was introduced to them whilst living in the States and I don’t know why I haven’t had one sooner! They’re also great because you can adjust the levels of sweetness vs sourness to your taste.
You can also garnish with a DIY dried lemon if you have them on hand!
