The Bee’s Knees

2937122682_b5767e0040Adding yummy ingredients you normally wouldn’t associate with alcohol is a great way of jazzing up your drinking experience at minimal cost. Honey is one such ingredient and I like to believe including it in a cocktail makes consuming one before noon socially acceptable.

Ingredients

  • 2.5 shots of gin(give or take 1/2 shot to calibrate to your taste)
  • 1 shot of honey syrup (equal parts honey and water and stir till they blend)
  • 1/2 shot of lemon juice(fresh)
  • 3 cubes (just for the shaking)

  • Instructions

  • Throw all the ingredients into the shaker
  • Shake till your hands go numb (this is really important because you need the gin and honey syrup to mix thoroughly)
  • Strain the concoction into an empty glass (garnish with a lemon twist if you are feeling fancy)

    A hot toddy minus the heat. I’ve long associated honey with alcohol.

    this bar I used to work at makes the most delicious bees knees. we use Hendrick’s gin, and simple syrup. No cubes though… (does that mean sugar?)

    Sorry, by cubes I meant ice cubes. I like my drinks tart so the honey is all the sweetness I need.
