Sweet & Sour Citrus Martini
Makes one cocktail
- 1 oz El Guapo® Lemon Cordial
- 1 tsp El Guapo® Cuban Bitters
- .5 oz freshly squeezed Meyer lemon juice
-
.5 oz freshly squeezed orange juice
1.5 oz vodka (we used St. Roch, but any quality vodka will do) - 1.5 oz vodka (we used St. Roch, but any quality vodka will do)
- Sugar, Meyer lemon peel or yard flowers, for garnish
In a shaker filled with ice, combine Lemon Cordial, bitters, juices & vodka. Shake until well chilled. Rim a martini glass in sugar (rim with water first to help sugar adhere) before straining liquid into the glass. Garnish with a Meyer lemon peel or yard flowers before serving.
Pro tip: For a more prominently bitter martini, add a tablespoon of Cuban bitters as opposed to a teaspoon.
