Back to cocktails

Bee’s Knees

A delightfully British cocktail. To make it you’ll need to shake it, but we promise it is worth the effort.

You will need…

50ml Hayman’s London Dry Gin
15ml Honey Syrup
25ml Lemon juice

Steps to make…

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
Put all ingredients into cocktail shaker.
Shake with ice.
Double strain into a chilled glass.
Traditionally served straight up but equally enjoyable served over ice.

Bartenders Tip

To make a Honey Syrup just mix honey and boiling water. We like to use 1-part hot water straight out the kettle with 1-part honey. Stir, and leave in the fridge to cool. Alternatively, you can also use a really light-coloured runny honey.
