If exists for temp table

What is the syntax to drop a temporary table if exists ? I want to drop a
temp table ##temptable if exist before I try to create it.
Thanks.create table ##temptable (id int)
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..##temptable') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
PRINT '##temptable exists!'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
PRINT '##temptable does not exist!'
END
