Smoke and whisky, which barely needs explaining.

Ingredients

  • 60ml bourbon or rye
  • 10ml Sweet Sting Hot Honey, loosened
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters
  • Orange peel
  • One large ice cube

Method

  1. 01

    Loosen the hot honey with a teaspoon of warm water so it will actually mix.

  2. 02

    Combine everything except the peel in a mixing glass with ice.

  3. 03

    Stir for 30 seconds — properly, until the outside of the glass frosts. Never shake this.

  4. 04

    Strain over one large cube.

  5. 05

    Express the orange peel over the surface, then drop it in.
