Why Ice Matters
The art of making ice, and why it matters in your cocktail.
This cocktail dates back to the prohibition era when anything called 'the bee's knees' meant it was really something special. True to form, if you're looking for a cocktail made with only three simple ingredients -- all produced right here in Northeast Florida -- then look no further! This is The Bee's Knees.
Ingredients
SERVINGS: 1 Cocktail
- 2 ounces gin
- 1 ounce fresh-squeezed lemon juice
- 1 ounce honey syrup
Instructions
Using a 1:1 ratio, heat equal parts local honey and fresh-filtered water over low heat in a sauce pan until throughly combined. Let cool completely. When ready to make your cocktail, combine gin, lemon juice and honey syrup into a shaker over ice. Shake well and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with lemon.
