An experiment in making oleo saccharum - a delightful lemon syrup - led to the creation of this delish cocktail. It is absolutely worth making the oleo saccharum the day before. Cheers!
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook time: n/a
Yield: 1 martini
Ingredients
2 oz vodka
1 oz oleo saccharum
3/4 oz Cointreau
sugar for the rim of the glass
ice for shaking
Directions
Put sugar on a small plate. Rub a lemon wedge around the rim of the glass and dip the glass in the sugar. Set aside.
Put drink ingredients (vodka, oleo saccharum and Cointreau) into a shaker with ice and shake until cold. Strain into your glass.
Zhuzh it up!
We had lemon juice left from making the oleo sacchraum, which we froze into small fun-shaped ice (about 1.5 tbsp each). You can add one or two of these to your glass and as it melts, the drink gets even lemony-er!
You could also add lemon zest to the sugar for the rim of the glass. The more lemon the better, right?
We garnished our drink with a dried lemon peel from making the oleo sacchraum.
