Sugar Free Lemon Drop

So it seems I'm being asked by some of my Facebook friends to spill the beans on how I make my version of a sugar free Vodka Lemon - or "Lemon Drop"

My recipe entails using the components of a proper "Lemon Drop" that are high quality - and reflect a lower amount of calories consumed as well.

My secret is using Stevia - a plant based natural sweetener that has medicinal properties - specifically among other things - for regulating blood insulin levels with no adverse effects inherent in other artificial sweeteners like Splenda, Aspartame, Saccharin, etc.

Every person I have made this for has told me flat out this is the best Lemon Drop they've ever tasted - and it's potent as well ;)

Be responsible - Don't Drink & Drive

Ingredients:

• 4 oz - High quality Vodka - I recommend Absolut, Grey Goose, Ketel One and other similar quality vodka's
• 4 oz Fresh squeezed Organic Lemon Juice
• 4 level scoops of Stevia (I recommend NuNaturals Stevia Powder - it comes with it's own spoon in the container)
• Fresh lemon zest from the squeezed lemons
  

Directions:

I prefer to store my vodka in the freezer - it just seems the right thing to do.

Add to a cocktail shaker 4 oz of freezer cold vodka, add an equal amount of fresh squeezed organic lemon juice. Using a micro plane, add about 1 tsp of fresh lemon zest. Add the Stevia powder to the shaker with ice. Shake vigorously for 60 seconds. Pour into your serving container of choice.

Bon Appetito
