Notes
Here are some tips to enhance your cocktail experience. If you prefer a tangier drink, increase the lemon juice by half an ounce. For a sweeter taste, add a bit more simple syrup. Always use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
Feel free to switch the vodka for gin if you want a different kick. If you're serving a group, this recipe easily scales up.
