Equipment
- cocktail shaker
Ingredients
- 2 oz gin
- 3/4 oz lemon juice
- 1/2 oz honey syrup
- lemon peel garnish (optional)

Notes
How to Peel a Lemon Garnish - If you’re handy with a pairing knife, you can just slice an even strip of lemon peel and twist it into a spiral, or slide the knife as you rotate the lemon in your hands to create a natural spiral shape. (Be careful!) If you’re not confident doing this with a knife, you can use vegetable peeler instead.
