Directions

  1. Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place lemon halves, cut-side up, on a baking sheet.

  2. Broil until lemon halves are blackened on the cut side, about 10 minutes. Allow lemons to cool enough to handle. Squeeze juice from the lemons into a measuring cup. Measure out 3/4 fluid ounce broiled lemon juice, reserving the rest for another use.

  3. Pour sugar into a shallow bowl. Run lemon wedge around the rim of a cocktail glass, dip into sugar.

  4. Combine whiskey, orange liqueur, and 3/4 fluid ounce broiled lemon juice in a cocktail shaker and add ice, cover and shake for 20 seconds. Strain drink into the prepared cocktail glass.
