The Best Frozen Lemon Drop Martini (Slush) You'll Ever Have (a Margarita-style Icy Lemon Drop!)

This Frozen Lemon Drop Martini is a tart and icy cocktail made by blending vodka, fresh lemon juice, sugar, and ice until slushy. The glass is rimmed with lemon and sugar for a sweet citrus touch that contrasts the sharpness of lemon and vodka. It's a refreshing, chilled drink with a texture between a slushie and a classic martini.
