Lemon drops.

Whether its candy or cocktail, you've got to love a good lemon drop--as long as you're over the age of 21 and drinking responsibly, of course.

Hello Lemon Drop Cocktail.

If you're serving up a signature drink at your next party, your guests will definitely love this drink. It's refreshing, cool and ready to be sipped.

Lemon Cocktail Recipes are All the Rage

We kid you not. Just look at all these beefed up adult lemonade drinks. Or, if you're not in the mood for lemons, there is always our famous (yes-FAMOUS) Strawberry Limeade Rum Punch. It is that good.

You've got to know that lemon cocktails are amazing. Add a sprig of mint or another garden herb and you've got a gorgeous cocktail that you won't want to miss.

It's not just the bright and brilliant yellow of a lemon that has us singing praises to this delightful drink--it's the clear cool citrus flavor. A flavor that you'll want to sip and savor.

    I'm confused. The image shows lemon slices and a mint garnish but the recipe is calling for cucumber slices and a basil garnish. Which is it?
