Notes

Pro Tips

  • To make spiced honey syrup: simmer equal parts honey and water with spices like cinnamon, cloves, and star anise, then strain.
  • Use a bold, high-proof bourbon so the whiskey’s character holds up against the citrus and syrup.
  • Pre-chill your glass to keep the drink cool longer.
