As per other suggestions, I cut the lemon juice down and used a bit more sugar. All I had on hand was raspberry vodka and it turned out great!

One of my favorite shots when I go out! I used about equal parts lemon and vodka and a little more sugar. The way I made it it was a good sipping cocktail as well. Obviously a good vodka is key - I prefer belvedere. Fine baking sugar disolves very quickly in the martinin shaker when you make tis as well. I like to cut lemon wedges and then coat them in sugar so people can bite into them after they take a drink. Thanks!

I used citron vodka, simple syrup instead of sugar (& I added at least a tsp extra) & I also rimmed my martini glass w/ sugar. I think this recipe might be meant for shots (there are two different lemon drops...a martini & a shot). I only got two martini glasses out of the recipe & mine are just the small 5 oz size. I think next time I will try rimming it w/ crushed lemon drop candies.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Lemon Drop martinis! I always have to add more sugar whenever I make this drink. I usually eyeball everything. You can buy Lemon Drop rimmer at specialty stores and it is a nice compliment to the drink, it's yellow too!

I'm sorry, but I love Lemon Drop Martini and this was awful! Way too much lemon juice. I needed to add alot more sugar and vodka to it to make it drinkable. After a few sips I ended up adding some peach nectar to it... After that it was awesome!

This drink was very refreshing and I also put sugar on the rims of the martini glasses. Thanks for the recipe!

I've never had a lemon drop so I've nothing to compare it to, but my guests and I LOVED this drink! I sugared martini glasses and added a mint leaf. So pretty, so darn good and really potent! Thanks EDandy!

this was good, but the lemon drops i have had at clubs, you put sugar on your hand, lick the sugar, drink the vodka shot and suck a lemon slice... but this was still good!
