WHISKEY LEMONADE.

I'm usually a pretty simple, vodka-tonic type girl but ever since I stocked my new bar cart, I feel as though I need to be a little bit more adventurous with my cocktail choices. I found this recipe (of course, via Pinterest) last week and have fallen completely in love with it on summer nights.

WHISKEY LEMONADE MADE WITH HONEY SIMPLE SYRUP
By Foodie Crush

1/2 cup raw honey
1/2 cup water
1-2 stems of your favorite herb (I used mint)
1/4 cup lemonade
1 shot whiskey (I made it a double, tee hee)
1/4 cup soda
Fresh lemon for garnish
1/2 to 1 teaspoon honey simple syrup

1 // In a small saucepan, bring water and honey to a boil. Reduce heat, add an herbal sprig and simmer for 15 minutes or until reduced by half. Let cool.

2 // Fill a short glass with ice and add one shot of whiskey. Add lemonade, soda and 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of honey simple syrup or to taste. Add reserved herb and lemon garnish and serve.
