How to Make a Lemon Drop Martini

This zingy martini is perfectly balanced and refreshingly tart, served with a sugar rim and a lemon twist. The plus side? It looks so festive that it’s great for celebrations of all kinds – be it a party in the afternoon sun, an evening dinner event, or classy New Year’s party. This simple four-part cocktail is an easy addition to your repertoire.
