Tough times call for tough drinks.
When life gives you lemons...
That's right. You make cocktails.
Or rather, you make candied lemon peel to be used in cocktails.
A delicacy this delicious can only be enjoyed one way. You guessed it: with alcohol. If you have the candied lemon peel, you need just a few other ingredients (and if you don't have the candied lemon peel, what are you waiting for? It's easy).
Laura's Lemon-Gin Fizz
In a shaker, combine...
1 jigger Gin (any, but I prefer Hendricks)
1 tsp Candied lemon peel (with syrup)
3 jiggers Tonic water
1 dash Blood orange bitters
ice
Shake vigorously until cold.
Strain into your snootiest glass.
Sip or slug, depending on how long a week it's been.
