  • Made with backyard wildflower honey; really added to the overall flavor.
  • Made with Arbor Gin and fresh honey from a house hive. The result feels completely classic. Like something out Jerry Thomas' book. Simple but delicious!

Comments

Katie,

Which of the Sun Liquor gins do you prefer here? Thanks,  Zachary

Zachary,

Hedgetrimmer is my preference, though I haven't had a chance to experiment with Gun Club, yet.

Curated to Dandelion & Burdock Bitters per the original ingredient note. Dr Adam Elmegirab's Aphrodite Bitters had been selected as a work around in the ingredient list from what I could see. Also had to change the Lillet to Lillet Blanc since the editor red flagged it as ambiguous. If either of these selections are incorrect, let me know so it can be fixed.
