Notes
Juniper will shine through more with a London Dry gin, while a more modern gin tends to bring out the drink's lemon and honey notes. Choose a mild honey, like clover. Honey Syrup: add ½ cup honey and ½ cup water to a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until honey dissolves, then allow to cool before transferring to an airtight container. Keeps refrigerated for up to 1 month.
