Method
Prep
- 1
Make honey syrup (if not ready)
Combine equal parts honey and warm water (e.g., 1/4 cup each) and stir until uniform. Cool before using. Measure 0.5 tablespoon for this cocktail.
- 2
Chill a coupe or flute glass in the freezer or fill with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.
Build the cocktail
- 3
Shake base
Add gin, blended Scotch, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and honey syrup to a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with ice (enough to chill and dilute properly).
- 4
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–18 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels very cold (this chills and lightly dilutes the mix).
- 5
Strain
Discard ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the shaken mixture into the chilled coupe or flute using a fine strainer to remove small ice chips and any pulp.
- 6
Top with sparkling wine
Carefully top the strained base with approximately 3 tablespoons (about a splash) of dry sparkling wine to add brightness and effervescence. Pour slowly to preserve bubbles and avoid overflow.
