I really enjoyed this cocktail. It is well balanced and because it is so full of flavor, it is a good one to sip slowly. I did not serve with ice cubes, but I did use smaller cubes and shook the shaker 60 times to get the cocktail super cold. I also sprinkled the thyme leaves on top (just a little bit) so as not to have a thick stem in the drink itself.

Absolutely fabulous! Followed recipe, but topped with a splash of club soda. Perfect cocktail for the summer.

Love this, but it’s a bit too sweet for me. Next time I’ll use less honey simple syrup and add an egg white to smooth everything out!
