Cocktails!

Here are a few easy citrus drinks that I plan to whip up this summer...


The Salty Dog

4 oz. freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
2 oz. Hendrick’s gin
1/4 teaspoon salt mixed with 1/8 tsp sugar, for rimming

Pour all ingredients over ice cubes in a highball glass rimmed with salt/sugar mixture. Stir well & serve. Serves 1.


The Lemon Drop

2 cups frozen vodka
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup superfine sugar
1 lemon, thinly sliced
Ice

Combine the vodka, lemon juice, and sugar and pour into a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour into martini glasses and garnish with lemon slices.  Serves 6.

  1. Lemon drop is my all time favorite summer cocktail. Great choice. Salty dog is also good, but I make mine with vodka instead of gin. Not a gin fan!
