Notes
Can you batch lemon drop shots?
Sure! Feel free to mix up the lemon juice, simple syrup, and vodka up to a few hours ahead of time and store it in the fridge. When it’s time to get the party started, grab your shaker, a cooler full of ice, and as many shot glasses as there are people to serve.
Storage Instructions
It's always best to make and serve Lemon Drop shots fresh from the shaker for the best flavor and experience.
If you happen to have any leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours or in the freezer for up to a week. Make sure to give them another shake before serving for the best taste and texture.
