Cantaloupe Bee's Knees

glassware: thrifted coupe

This is what you’re gonna wanna sip on when the weather pretends that it’s summer (but it’s really spring) and your AC isn’t pumping to its full capacity yet. It’s bright, a little sweet, and super refreshing (thanks to that fresh cantaloupe juice)!

Ingredients:

  • ½ oz thyme honey syrup

  • ¾ oz fresh lemon juice

  • 1½ oz fresh cantaloupe juice

  • 2 oz gin

  • garnish: thyme sprig

Directions:

Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a thyme sprig.

To make the fresh cantaloupe juice, just add some cantaloupe with a little bit of water and blend. Strain through a fine mesh sieve. Should last a few days.
