1/2 cup limoncello ( see previous recipe )
1/2 c sliced strawberries
2 tablespoons regular sugar
3 tablespoons decorator or flavored sugar
2 tablespoons water
Mix water and regular sugar over strawberries (saving a few halves for garnish) and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes or until it form a good syrup in bottom of bowl. Sprinkle decorator sugar on plate. dip rim of 4 martini glasses in strawberry syrup just enough to coat then roll in decorator sugar. In martini shaker ( or a jar with a lid will work in a pinch) mix limoncello, strawberries in syrup and ice. Shake well for 30 seconds. Strain liquid into martini glasses and garnish with fresh strawberry.
Didn't make limoncello? You can buy it at the store or use regular vodka mixed with lemon juice to taste. If you add lemon juice you will need to add extra sugar.
