1
Prepare the Glass
Start by rimming the edge of a chilled martini glass with sugar. To do this, rub a lemon wedge around the rim of the glass and then dip it into a plate of sugar to coat the rim evenly.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, triple sec, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.
3
Shake Well
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared martini glass, ensuring that no ice cubes get into the glass.
5
Garnish
Twist the lemon peel over the glass to release its oils and then drop it in as a garnish.
