Method

Cocktail Preparation

Prepare the Glass

Start by preparing the martini glass. Rub the rim of the glass with a fresh lemon wedge to moisten it.

Sugar the Rim

Dip the moistened rim into a plate of sugar to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

Mix the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the vodka, triple sec, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup.

Shake Well

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and mix the ingredients well.

Strain and Serve

Strain the mixture into the prepared martini glass. Add a lemon twist or slice for garnish.
