Cocktails with rich honey syrup
Make your own
- 300 g (⅞ cup) honey, ideally raw
- 100 ml (⅓ cup + 1½ tbsp) warm water
How to make it
- 1Weigh the honey into a squeeze bottle or jar, then add one third as much water by weight.
- 2Shake or stir to combine. If the honey is stiff, stand the container in warm water, keeping it below 36°C (97°F) so the honey keeps its flavor.
- 3Let cool and refrigerate. Make only as much as you will use in a few days.
Punch’s honey syrup (for its Bee’s Knees) is 2 parts honey to 1 part hot water, a little thinner than this.

Out of rich honey syrup? In a pinch, use honey syrup. The drink will taste different, but it will still work.
