Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cups vodka
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 cup simple syrup
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 lemon wedge

Instructions:

  1. Rub a lemon wedge around the outer rim of each shot glass.
  2. Dip the moistened rim directly into the granulated sugar, rotating slowly to create a consistent, white crystalline crust.
  3. Set the glasses aside on a dry surface to prevent the sugar from sliding.
  4. Pour the vodka, lemon juice, lime juice, and simple syrup into the cocktail shaker.
  5. Fill the shaker to the brim with ice cubes.
  6. Seal the lid tightly and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels frosty and the liquid inside is aerated.
  7. Using the fine mesh strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared sugar-rimmed glasses.
  8. Serve immediately while the liquid is ice-cold.
