South American Honey Bee

Shake Pisco, Cachaça, Honey Syrup, Lime Juice with ice. Strain into a rocks glass.

On a Friday evening at Drink, a patron asked for a Pisco Sour variation. Inspired by previous successes with cachaça in drinks like the Javari Mai Tai and Loreto Swizzle, as well as Jay Kuehner's Cienciano, I decided to blend pisco and cachaça. Instead of simple syrup, honey was used for sweetness. Recalling David Embury’s reference to a Jamaican rum drink as the Honey Bee and noting Yvonne’s Honey Bee featured egg white, I named it the South American Honey Bee.
