A bright, lemony martini with vodka, limoncello, and fresh-squeezed lemon.
6 steps, about 3 minutes start to finish.

Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
Strain into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a lemon twist.
Serve immediately.
“A long, hard shake over ice gets it icy cold with a whisper of froth on top. Use fresh lemon juice, it's brighter than bottled and balances the sweet limoncello.”
