That one?
I am game.

Here ya go...
Lemon Drop Martini Ingredients
1 1/2 ounces vodka [in my case, only Chopin will do]
1/2 ounce triple sec
1 teaspoon superfine sugar
3/4 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
Superfine sugar for dipping
Twisted peel of lemon
I omitted the superfine sugar around the rim of the glass though.
An ex-GF turned me onto them years ago - I recall it was considered initially as a "chick" drink, but I am secure in my masculinity so I don't care.
Plus I love lemons and vodka, so why not? lol
