Honey Bourbon Thyme Lemonade

Description

Honey Bourbon Thyme Lemonade takes the familiar bourbon, honey and lemon partnership and stretches it into a longer, fresher drink. Thyme adds a savoury herbal edge, while soda water keeps the honey from becoming heavy.

Shake the concentrated base first, then lengthen it over fresh ice. The result should taste bright and aromatic, with bourbon still clearly present beneath the lemon and herbs.

Ingredients

50 ml Bourbon
20 ml lemon juice
10 ml Honey syrup
5 ml Thyme syrup
Approx. 80 ml Soda Water, to top
Ice
1 sprig Thyme Sprig

Instructions

Add the bourbon, fresh lemon juice, honey syrup and thyme syrup to a shaker with ice.
Shake briefly until cold.
Strain into a tall glass over fresh ice and top with soda water.
Stir gently and garnish with a thyme sprig.
