A simple cocktail of which I fell in love with for the name alone. The Bee's Knees gets its sweetness from a quick-to-prepare honey syrup, not to mention a fragrant, sharp flavor from its added bits of lavender.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 part hot water
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender blossoms
  • 1 part honey
  • 1.5 parts gin
  • 1/2 part tablespoons lemon juice
  1. Step 1

    Mix the hot water and dried lavender blossoms in a bowl. Let it steep for five minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk in honey, and strain into another bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Add the honey syrup, gin, and lemon juice; strain into cocktail shaker with ice.

  4. Step 4

    Shake well and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Enjoy!
