Ingredients
- 1 cup ice
- 1 teaspoon sugar or simple syrup (plus more for the rim)
- 2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 ounces vodka
- 2 ounces limoncello
- 1 dehydrated orange slice (or lemon peel)
- 2 mint leaves (garnish, optional)

Notes
- If you don't have dehydrated orange slices, peel a strip of lemon zest and add that to the martini glass as a garnish.
- Green mint leaves look beautiful in this Limoncello Martini so consider using a few to garnish each glass.
- A fun way to serve Limoncello Martini is in a martini glass rimmed with sugar. To do this, moisten the rim of a martini glass with a sliced lemon. Next, dip the rim into a saucer covered in a layer of sugar, while slowly turning the glass to cover the entire rim with sugar.
