Method
Cocktail
Combine spirits and lime
In a cocktail shaker (or mixing glass) add 1.5 oz Tennessee whiskey, 0.5 oz Tennessee Honey liqueur, and 0.5 oz fresh lime juice. Fill the shaker halfway with ice.
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 8–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels cold. This chills and lightly dilutes the spirit mixture.
Assemble drink
Discard any excess water from the chilled serving glass if necessary. Strain the shaken whiskey-honey-lime mixture into the prepared glass over the ice.
Top with ginger beer
Slowly pour 4 oz chilled ginger beer over the strained mixture to preserve carbonation. Gently stir once or twice with a bar spoon to integrate flavors without flattening the ginger beer.
Garnish and serve
Float or place a lime wheel on the rim or surface of the drink. Serve immediately with a short straw or stirrer so the guest can adjust taste.
Optional adjustments
For a sweeter drink, add 0.25 oz more Tennessee Honey. For more citrus brightness, increase fresh lime juice to 0.75 oz. Adjust ginger beer quantity to taste or glass size.
