I’ll have a Belvedere and soda with three lemons, juiced and 'carcass out,' served in a short glass, please
If you aren’t familiar with the oeuvre of Dorit Kemsley, you really only need one word to describe her: extra. She’s always dripping in designer labels and diamonds, so it’s really no surprise that she would demand someone else squeeze her lemon wedges, and discard their emptied carcasses so that she doesn’t even have to see them.
In what I only ever call “the Dorit” when I drink it at home, the addition of so much lemon juice creates a sense of balance between the sharpness of the bubbles and the sting of the vodka. Of course, I don’t normally have Belvedere on my shelf because I am a mere journalist, not the CEO of my own fledglingempire, but Tito’s will do just fine. I do have to discard my own lemon carcasses when I drink it at home, though, an injustice from which I’ll likely never recover.
Practically, serving the Dorit in a short glass means that there’s less actual club soda, which just feels much more to-the-point when you’re trying to catch a buzz, and is also exceedingly helpful in situations where you don’t want to burp your face off, either while sipping drinks with friends at home or while Bravo’s cameras are tracking your every move.
