The Kamikaze is made of equal parts vodka, triple sec and lime juice. Garnish is typically a wedge or twist of lime. Dozens of variations exist in online databases today.[1] Some include the addition of cane sugar.
The drink is probably named for the Japanese "Kamikaze" dive bombers of World War II.
