Ingredients
- Vodka5 cl
- Lemon Juice7 cl

Instructions
The vodka lemon is prepared directly in a highball glass or in a large tumbler: put 6-7 ice cubes in the glass, pour the vodka, lemonade and mix with a bar spoon. Finally decorate with a slice of lemon and, if you prefer, add a few mint leaves. Your vodka lemon is ready to be served.
Expert Tips
Glassware Tip
Fill your highball glass with ice before adding ingredients. The tall, narrow shape is designed to keep carbonated mixers fizzy and refreshing throughout the drink.
Fresh Citrus Tip
Always squeeze fresh citrus juice rather than using bottled. Roll the fruit on the counter before cutting to release more juice, and strain out seeds and pulp for a smoother drink.
Presentation Tip
Garnishes aren't just decorative - they add aroma and can be eaten to complement the drink. Match your garnish to key flavors in the recipe for a cohesive experience.
Vodka can be distilled from almost any starch or sugar source, including potatoes, grapes, corn, and even milk.
