Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by chilling your cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of straight bourbon, 0.5 oz of Earl Grey honey syrup, and 0.75 oz of freshly squeezed lemon juice.

  3. 3

    Add Ice and Shake

    Fill the shaker with ice cubes to taste, cover it, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Remove the ice from your chilled cocktail glass and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Twist a lemon peel over the drink to release its oils, then use the peel as a garnish by placing it on the rim of the glass.
