Vodka & lime crush

Vodka & Lime Crush is a refreshingly simple cocktail, perfect for any occasion. With just a few ingredients, you can whip up this light and zesty drink in no time. Here's how to make it.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup sugar
63g
2 limes
140g
3/4 cup vodka
170g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Sugar Syrup:
- In a small saucepan, combine the 1/3 cup of sugar with 1/3 cup of water.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Once dissolved, remove the saucepan from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature.
2. Juice the Limes:
- Roll the limes on a cutting board to loosen the juice inside.
- Cut the limes in half and juice them using a citrus juicer or by hand, ensuring you extract as much juice as possible. Strain the juice to remove any pulp or seeds if desired.
3. Combine Ingredients:
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the cooled sugar syrup, freshly squeezed lime juice, and 3/4 cup of vodka.
- Add ice to the shaker to cool the mixture.
4. Shake Well:
- Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, until the mixture is well chilled.
5. Serve:
- Fill a highball or rocks glass with ice.
- Strain the vodka and lime mixture into the glass over the ice.
6. Garnish:
- Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge for an added touch.

Tips:

- Use fresh limes for the best flavor; bottled lime juice can work in a pinch, but fresh is always better.

- Chill your vodka ahead of time to ensure your cocktail is cold and crisp.

- For a little extra flair, consider adding a splash of club soda for some fizz.

- Use superfine sugar if possible, as it dissolves more easily in cold liquids.

There you have it! A simple and delightful Vodka & Lime Crush that’s sure to impress. Enjoy responsibly and savor the bright, citrusy flavors with every sip. Cheers!
