This 3-ingredient Cherry Vodka Sour recipe is quick and easy and full of sweet and tangy flavor! The bright pink color makes this a perfect party cocktail.
To a cocktail shaker, add the vodka, grenadine and lemon juice.
Shake well.
Stain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish and enjoy!
Notes
To get the most juice out of your lemon, you can use my favorite citrus squeezer. If the lemon feels hard to start, you can microwave it for about 10 seconds then roll it on the counter, pressing down with the heel of your hand.
You can use something other than vodka for this recipe! A Whiskey Sour is also a popular drink idea. And don't forget an Amaretto Sour.
Want to go a little lighter on the liquor? You can cut it back to 1 ounce or an ounce and half if you prefer.
This would also be delicious topped with a splash of club soda to make it a little fizzy.
You can easily make this into a larger batch. Just change the serving amounts in the recipe card above.
You can serve this drink over ice if you prefer.
Rim the cocktail glass in sugar before adding the drink for an extra fun (and extra sweet) presentation.
