Killer Bee

This is our spicy, smoky Savannah Bee Company take on a Bee’s Knees cocktail. Mezcal replaces gin and hot honey adds a fiery, sweet kick.

Killer Bee
(hot honey + mezcal + lemon)
Serves 1

What You Need:

For the cocktail:
1½ tablespoons Savannah Bee Company honey (we used Savannah Bee Company Hot Honey), plus more for garnish
¼ cup mezcal
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Lemon slices and jalapeño slices for garnish 

What to do:
1. Wash Up!

2. Make the cocktail: Stir together the hot honey, mezcal, and lemon juice in a glass or cocktail shaker until the honey dissolves. Pour into an ice-filled glass.

To Serve: Garnish with lemon slices and jalapeño slices and drizzle with more honey, if desired.

Pro Tip: Wear gloves when slicing the jalapeño to avoid inadvertent burns.

Table Talk: One has to go: spicy, sweet, salty, or sour?
