Summer Cocktail Month: June 27, 2013

The Bees Knees! Another classic cocktail from the archives! Honey syrup can be made on a drink-by-drink basis - 1 T honey plus 1 T water, heat in a glass for 30 sec in the microwave, cool slightly before using. In honor of our favorite insect: the bee (wild or native, you rule our world!)

2 parts gin 
3/4 honey syrup 
Juice of 1/2 a lemon

Combine in a shaker and shake over ice and strain into a glass, with or without ice (our new fave is to pour over a ginormous ice cube made with some fancy-schmancy new silicone ice cube tray!).
