1 Whole lemon, halved
1 Whole lemon, thinly sliced
2 Ounce Ransom Whiskey
3/4 Ounce Traeger Smoked Simple Syrup
3/4 Ounce Grilled Lemon Juice
Steps
1
When ready to cook, set grill temperature to High and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.2
For the grilled lemon juice, slice 1 of the lemons in half and place on the grill. For the garnish, take other lemon and slice lemon wheels 1/4" inch thick and place on grill.3
Cook for 15 minutes or until the lemons have grill marks on one side. Set the lemon wheels aside. Juice the halved lemon (3/4 oz is about the amount of a half full alcoholic shot glass).4
Combine all ingredients in a shaker glass with ice and shake vigorously. Fine strain into a chilled coupe glass and garnish with a grilled lemon wheel. Enjoy!
