A twist on the classic Lemon Drop, this cocktail blends vodka, orange liqueur, and Ogonkan juice (Japanese golden citrus) into a vibrant, citrus-forward drink that’s both refreshing and smooth. Ogonkan, known as the Japanese golden citrus, is similar to yuzu but less tart and more delicately sweet. Its gentle aroma and bright flavor somewhere between an orange and a mandarin softens the sharp tang of the original Lemon Drop, creating a softer, more elegant take on the familiar favorite.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz (3 Tbsp) Ogonkan juice

  • 0.5 oz orange liqueur

  • 1-1.5 oz vodka

  • 0.5-1 oz simple syrup (I did 0.5 oz since I like it less sweet)

  • Optional: Top it off with soda water

  • Optional: fresh edible flower or dehydrated citrus for garnish

Instructions:

  1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the ogonkan juice, orange liqueur, vodka, and simple syrup.

  2. Add ice cubes and shake.

  3. Pour the mixture into a cocktail glass.

  4. Optional: fresh edible flower or dehydrated citrus for garnish.

Enjoy!
