Spring Cocktail Recipe: Strawberry Lemon Drop


Thank the heavens that Spring is right around the corner! Spring means people are coming out of hibernation mode and getting out and about. I have grown a bit obsessed with entertaining as of late and experimenting with different cocktail recipes is one of my favorite things....well that and drinking. I love any excuse for a good cocktail! 

One of my favs is the classic lemon drop. I wanted to infuse it with a fruit and added a bit of strawberry puree to the classic recipe and it turned out amazing! The perfect mixture of sweet and sour, great for any girls night in. So let's get right into it so you can start making this yummy creation ASAP!

Ingredients:
  • 2 parts Vodka
