Hey Simon,

Thanks for your reply—and I completely understand the use of the “Adapted From” statement.

That said, while I respect Difford’s Guide’s editorial approach, this version of the cocktail might create confusion for readers. It could be worthwhile to also list the original (and unique) version, especially considering that the Honey Deuce cocktail is a registered trademark of the USTA.

Appreciate your attention to this, and always grateful for the work you do in elevating the conversation around cocktails.

Best regards,
Emile

Oh, what a surprise reading this !
I am sorry to inform you that the recipe listed above is inaccurate and the part of the story that the cocktail was created in 2016 and Nick Mautone was a Grey Goose ambassador also inaccurate.

The original recipe is
1 1/4 oz Grey Goose vodka
3oz lemonade
1/2 oz Chambord
Build and stir over ice and garnish with 3 honeydew melon balls

It would be great if you could adjust to reflect the reality of it.

Thank you
