Honeysuckle

It’s the sweet taste of honey that holds the flavours together. This is the Honeysuckle.





Prep time : 2 minutes






Serves : 1





Strength : Weak



In certain cocktails and drinks it can be one ingredient that makes all the difference, the Honeysuckle is a great example of one of these drinks. The honey syrup used in it helps bring together the light abrasive alcoholic taste of Light Rum with the sour bite of Lime juice with a pleasant, sweet bridge.


There is nothing too strong about this drink that would put you off, even with the ratio of spirit to other ingredients. Its overall flavour is very much sweet and light with just a hint of sour bite from the Lime juice. With only three ingredients included in the recipe it is a very easy cocktail to make and shouldn’t take a lot of time or effort. Playing around with other flavours and types of Rum may also be a great way to spice up this recipe.


If you are new to drinks making or have not tried too many cocktails in your time and want to start off with something not too strong or in your face , then the Honeysuckle would be a good place to start.
