Gold Rush

Sour with honey instead

Glass Rocks
Method Shaken
Garnish lemon wheel

A sour built for bourbon. Honey syrup rounds the lemon in a way simple syrup never could. Smoother and more complex than its three ingredients suggest.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Bourbon
  • 3/4 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 3/4 oz Honey Syrup

Method

Combine bourbon, lemon juice, and honey syrup in a shaker with ice. Shake well. Strain into a rocks glass over a large ice cube.
