Description & Prep
Dissolve the honey in the lemon and orange juices before anything else, otherwise it sinks and sits at the bottom of the shaker. Only then add the gin, shake with ice and strain into the chilled glass. It was born during American Prohibition, when honey covered up bad gin, and it survived because it works just as well with good gin.
