--------------------

I've been seeing lots of bartenders make "improvements" to the Lemon Drop, and 
still just calling it a Lemon Drop. The most common is the addition of triple 
sec.

Come on guys, get a clue. The name "Lemon Drop" refers to the fact that it 
tastes like the lemon drop candies, which are just sugar and lemon.

If you add triple sec to it, it becomes a Lemon Kamikaze, or pehaps you can 
come up with some other name.

A drink made with vodka, lemon, sugar and Amaretto might be good, but it 
definately is not a lemon drop.
