Instructions
- Wash limes and cut into 6 wedges.
- Add lime slices to a tall glass and add sugar. Gently crush limes to release juice (press limes firmly enough to release juice but not the bitter oil from the peel).
- Stir until sugar dissolves. Add vodka and ice.
- If desired, prepare 2nd glass by dipping the rim in water and then sugar. Carefully pour the vodka-lime mixture into the sugared glass.
