TRICKS
In
order to avoid the bitter taste of the peel, you should
squeeze the lemon by hand.
" Never use implements or
devices to do so."
The ratio of vodka to lemon juice must be 3 or 5 to 1.
First, put the lemon juice into the glass.Then add the
vodka. Then add enough sugar and as many ice cubes as you want.
If
fresh lemon is not available, you may use dehydrated
lemon juice in the form of a powder. One teaspoon equals
half a lemon.
When using concentrate lemon juice in powder form, the
first step is to pour the vodka into the glass.
