Hi Honey
Hi Honey is a soothing, sweet-and-sour mezcal cocktail modeled closely after the classic Bee's Knees template. It features The Lost Explorer Mezcal Espadín shaken with 0.75 oz of a delicate chamomile-infused honey syrup and 2/3 oz of fresh, tart lemon juice. The secret ingredient that ties the floral notes together is a single drop of highly aromatic orange blossom water. Everything is shaken with ice, strained into an old fashioned glass over a single large ice cube, and beautifully completed with a fresh lemon slice and an optional piece of honeycomb.
Ingredients:
1½ oz / 45 ml The Lost Explorer Mezcal Espadín
¾ oz / 25 ml Chamomile & Honey Syrup
⅔ oz / 20 ml Lemon juice
1 drop Orange blossom water
Garnish: Lemon slice, honeycomb
Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake, then strain into an Old Fashioned Glass with one large ice cube. Garnish with a lemon slice or peel and, optionally, some honeycomb. Get ready for the next round.
