Madonna's 50th Martini

K, yesterday was Madonna's 50th Birthday, and I just finished her brother's tell-all (which was like a tell-some) memoir, Life with My Sister Madonna. I've learned that she doesn't really drink these days, or ever, EXCEPT for Lemon Drops. So I'm usually against making these fucking martinis, but I'll make an exception for the high-horsed pop icon.



Lemon Drop Martini



2.5 oz. Ketel Citron
.5 oz. Lemoncello
3/4 oz. Cointreau
Juice of half of an active lemon
pinch of simple syrup


Add ingredients in shaker, ice, strain.


Martini glass half mooned with sugar.
Garnish: lemon peel fresh off the lemon.

Happy Birthday Madge from a Cleveland Mixologist you'll never ever meet in real life!!
