Bright, zesty, and warmly spiced. This cocktail pairs Matchbook Vodka Currant with fresh lemon juice and triple sec for a vibrant citrus base, lightly balanced with simple syrup. Served in a coupe with a cinnamon-sugar rim and finished with a lemon peel, it’s a cozy twist on a classic lemon drop—evoking the sweet, spiced notes of a currant roll.
