Ingredients

1 ounce of vodka
½ ounce of white Curaçao (triple sec)
½ ounce of lime juice
1green maraschino cherry

Preparation steps

Prepare your cocktail glass by giving it a snow-style sugar rim; to do this, cut a lemon (or other citrus) in half and rub the juice side along the outer rim of the glass.
Dip the moistened rim into a dish of sugar so the grains adhere to the glass like snowflakes.
Tap the glass lightly upside down against your palm to shake off excess sugar.
Shake the vodka, white Curaçao, and lime juice in a shaker with ice to chill, then strain into the rimmed glass.
Garnish with a green maraschino cherry.
