Bee's Knees Cocktail

Bee's Knees Cocktail

The original purpose of honey in this simple Prohibition Era cocktail was to mask the smell of the bathtub gin. Now you can enjoy it without having to hide a thing.

Ingredients

  • 2 fluid ounces gin
  • ½ fluid ounce lemon juice
  • ¾ fluid ounce honey syrup
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Directions

Step 1
Combine gin, lemon juice, and honey syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, cover and shake until chilled. Strain into a chilled coupe glass.

Editor’s Note:

May substitute honey for honey syrup, though the honey will often form a ball in the middle of the shaker. Avoid this by combining three parts honey to one part hot water, stirring until completely mixed, then continuing with recipe.
