We first came across this drink on reddit, in user hebugs artful breakdown of the classic bees knees cocktail recipe (see footnotes). If you havent yet become acquainted with reddits cocktail community, do swing by its a wonderful resource on the history and the craft of the libationary arts. Theres not a lot of consensus on the actual recipe for this drink some recipes we found added orange juice (too sweet), reduced the honey (too dry), and some used lemon instead of lime (we prefer the lime version, but weve included lemon as an alternate). We tweaked and tested the recipe, and we think weve hit on the perfect proportions sweet, juicy, rich, and not the least bit cloying.
