Ingredients

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

Cooking Directions

  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.
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.
