Steps:

  • To make a honey syrup, in a small bowl or jar, combine the honey with 1 1⁄2 ounces water.
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine the mezcal, lemon juice, and 3⁄4 ounce of the honey syrup (save the remaining honey syrup for another cocktail). Fill the shaker three-quarters of the way with ice and shake vigorously for 10 seconds if serving on the rocks or 15 seconds if serving "up." Strain into an ice-filled double old-fashioned glass or bucket glass, or serve up with no ice.

1 1⁄2 ounces honey
2 ounces mezcal, such as Del Maguey Vida brand
1 1⁄2 ounces freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1 lemon)

THE NEW BEE'S KNEES

Here's an easy cocktail that is sure to be the buzz of your next dinner party. The Bee's Knees gets its sweetness from a quick-to-prepare honey syrup. And we've given this classic drink a floral, Provençal twist by adding lavender. The result is unexpected and delicious: a perfect balance of sharp, fragrant, sweet, and strong.
