I love this cocktail so much. I’s very similar to the classic Bees knees cocktail, however for this we will use vodka. My vodka of choice is Titos- it’s smooth and mixes well in most cocktails. I think you will enjoy the subtle sweetness and cinnamon spiced cocktail with pasta, fish, and other warmly spiced flavors.
To make the simple syrup
Simmer the water and honey in a small pot over medium high heat until the honey is full mixed into the water. Bring the water to a boil then reduce to a simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let it cool completely before using. You can store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
For the spiced honey cocktail
Add ice, vodka, lemon juice, honey simple syrup, and a cinnamon stick to a shaker. Shake until cold and strain it into a chilled coupe glass. Add a cinnamon stick for garnish (optional)
