Lemon Drop Shot

- 0.25 oz simple syrup
- Sugar for rimming the glass
- Lemon wedge (optional)

Rim a shot glass with sugar.

Notes
Fresh lemon juice makes the best lemon drop shots.
For a sweeter shot, increase the simple syrup slightly.
Chill the shot glass beforehand for an extra-cold shot.
For a classic bar-style finish, bite into a sugar-dipped lemon wedge after taking the shot. 🍋✨
