Limoncello liqueur is a traditional Italian lemon thick liqueur. Its sweet, intense lemon flavor and aroma make this liqueur a stand-alone dessert alcohol. However, Limoncello is also a great ingredient for cocktails, as it gives the drink a sweetish lemon flavor. A cocktail with Limoncello liqueur will be appreciated by many, but when it is paired with the purest, softest Vodka Napoleon, no one will be able to resist it.
Ingredients:
- Vodka Napoleon — 80 ml
- Limoncella liqueur — 80 ml
- Soda water — 100 ml
- Fresh lemon juice of 2 large lemons
- 3 tablespoons sugar syrup
- 1 tablespoon sea salt, for serving
- 1 tablespoon white sugar, for serving
- Crushed ice
- Thinly sliced lemon slices, for serving
- Sprig of mint, for serving
How to do:
- Pour the lemon juice and sugar syrup into a shaker. Shake well.
- Next add Vodka Napoleon and Limoncello Liqueur to the shaker. Shake for 20 seconds and set aside.
- Now it is necessary to prepare the sugar-salt rim of the glass. Put a bit of lemon juice in a shallow bowl. Combine salt and sugar on a small plate. Dip the rim of the glass lightly in the lemon juice first, then dip in the sugar-salt mixture. Set it aside.
- Next, pour the mixture from the shaker into a large jug, then add the sparkling water. Stir and pour into a cocktail glass filled with ice.
- Garnish the glass with a slice of lemon and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately.
Cheers!
