Oh sweet happy hour. I’ll be spending my day serving jury duty, so it’s safe to assume a happy hour will be needed. This week’s cocktail is inspired by the classic drink called Bee’s Knees, which includes gin, honey syrup and lemon juice. A while ago I infused a whole bunch of vodka, trying to figure out what flavors worked best and one of them happened to be infused with meyer lemons. So i pulled that puppy out and created a mixture of lemon infused vodka, honey syrup (1 part water, 1 part honey) and Domaine de Canton.

Woohoo! This cocktail packs a punch! Each flavor compliments the other to create one heck of a cocktail. I garnished mine with a little lemon slice and called it a day.

Cheers! Have a great weekend!
