The Bee’s Knees is a cocktail from the Prohibition era that relied on honey and lemon to mask the flavor of unpalatable bathtub gin. The gin we drink today has obviously come a long way, but this simple drink has remained a classic. You can use whipped honey or unwhipped honey in this recipe.

Directions
- For the whipped honey syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the whipped honey and water and cook, stirring, until incorporated and dissolved. Cool to room temperature before using.

Whipped Honey:
