Ingredients

Honey Syrup:

3/4 fluid ounce honey syrup
3/4 fluid ounce fresh lemon juice
lemon twist, for garnish

Add 1 cup of ice to a cocktail shaker. Add bourbon, honey syrup and lemon juice. Cover and shake until chilled, 15 to 20 seconds. Fill a rocks glass with remaining ice cubes or 1 large ice sphere and strain cocktail over the ice. Garnish with lemon twist.
