Method

Cocktail

Chill glass (optional)

Place a coupe or martini glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill it.

Combine ingredients

Add Absolut Citron vodka (2 oz), fresh lemon juice (0.75 oz), simple syrup (0.5 oz), and triple sec (0.5 oz) into a cocktail shaker.

Add ice and shake

Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup or enough to 3/4 fill). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold and the exterior is frosty.

Prepare glass

If you chilled the glass with ice water, dump the ice water out now. If it was in the freezer, remove it.

Strain

Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and any pulp.

Garnish

Express the oils of a lemon twist over the drink by holding the twist skin-side down over the glass and gently squeezing so the citrus oils spray onto the surface. Rub the twist around the rim if desired, then drop it into the cocktail or perch a lemon wheel on the rim.
