What is the bartender tip for a Bourbon Limoncello Breeze?
Straight honey seizes up on ice: really muddle it with the lemon wheel and rosemary until they release juice and aroma — that thins the honey out. If it is very thick, warm it slightly or use 15 ml of 3:1 honey syrup, as in the Gold Rush. Don't crush the rosemary into a paste: the leaf turns bitter. Limoncello already sweetens; if yours is very sweet, cut the honey to 10 ml. A proper bourbon holds up to the citrus. Strain over large cubes: small ice melts fast and the drink turns to tea. The catalog already has the Gold Rush (bourbon, honey syrup, and juice, no limoncello or rosemary).
