Cocktail

2 oz Bourbon (Buffalo Trace recommended)3/4 oz Fresh lemon juice1/2 oz Honey syrup (1:1 honey to hot water)2 dashes Angostura bitters1 cup Ice (for shaking and serving)

Garnish

1 piece Lemon wheel or twist

Method

Cocktail

Prepare honey syrup

If you don't have honey syrup ready, mix equal parts honey and hot water (1:1) until fully combined and cool slightly. Measure 0.5 oz for the cocktail.

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice.

Add 2 oz bourbon, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz honey syrup, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters to the shaker.

Cap the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–16 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and well-chilled.

Strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer (or the shaker's strainer) into a chilled rocks glass over one large ice cube or fresh ice.

Garnish

Express the oils of a lemon twist over the drink or place a lemon wheel on the rim for aroma and presentation.
