Green Dragon Instructions
The Green Dragon cocktail is a refreshing and vibrant drink that is perfect for any occasion. This cocktail is made with a combination of citrus flavors and a hint of sweetness, making it a favorite among cocktail enthusiasts.
To make the Green Dragon, you will need a few key ingredients. Start by squeezing the juice from fresh lemons and limes. This will give the cocktail a tangy and citrusy taste. Next, add a splash of simple syrup to sweeten the drink. You can adjust the amount of simple syrup based on your personal taste preferences.
Once you have your citrus juice and simple syrup ready, it's time to add the star ingredient of the Green Dragon cocktail – vodka. Add a generous amount of vodka to a shaker filled with ice, along with the citrus juice and simple syrup. Give it a good shake to combine all the ingredients and chill the cocktail.
When you are ready to serve, strain the Green Dragon cocktail into a chilled glass over ice. Garnish with a slice of lemon or lime for an extra burst of citrus flavor. You can also add a sprig of mint or a twist of lime peel for added freshness.
Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the refreshing and zesty taste of the Green Dragon cocktail. Whether you are hosting a dinner party or enjoying a quiet evening at home, this cocktail is sure to impress.

Origins of Green Dragon Drink Recipe
The origins of the Green Dragon drink recipe are shrouded in mystery, but it is believed to have originated in ancient China. The name "Green Dragon" comes from the color of the tincture, which turns green as the cannabis infuses with the alcohol.
In traditional Chinese medicine, cannabis was often used as an herbal remedy for various ailments. The process of making Green Dragon involves soaking ground-up cannabis buds or leaves in high-proof alcohol such as vodka or Everclear for several weeks to extract the cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant material.
Once the tincture is ready, it can be added to cocktails, mixed with soda or juice, or even taken sublingually for a quick and potent dose of THC. Some people also use Green Dragon as a base ingredient for cooking edibles like brownies, cookies, and candies.
