I made one with chamomile infused gin, in the spirit of Audrey Saunders MarTEAni, and it was exactly what I was hoping for.

This is a very citrus dominant drink. Starts with a nice mild sweetness from the honey but then finishes with a nice citrus acidity. A nice complexity to it. If you like drinks that lean towards the slightly sour side, this is a nice one.

Surprisingly complex in taste, especially considering its simplicity.
Smooth, warm and rich honey with the "coolish" herbal-ness of the gin results in a really great and extremely yummy cocktail.

Simple and good one. I am wondering, is it ok to use giffard honey syrup ? I kinda suck in homemade syrup

You could use honey=flavoured sugar syrup but would be a shame.

Loved it! Added a dash of lemonade for those who don’t like strong drinks

I appreciate the inclusion of “how to make without honey syrup”, however I’m confused at using 4 spoons (20 ml, right?) of honey in place of 15 ml honey syrup (which I’m assuming is less sweet than plain honey)

Unless you are very patient, due to the gloopiness of honey, unless heaped, 4 spoons of honey equals a lot less than 20ml as the bowl of the spoon is filled with the first spoonful and never really empties until stirred in or licked. Best to make the honey into measurable and pourable syrup.

I'm particularly fond of this drink made with the Speakeasy version of honey syrup which uses vanilla and orange zest.

I liked it for what it is.. a good beginner cocktail for someone not typically a cocktail drinker.
