Ingredients
Honey Syrup:
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup warm water
Martinis:
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 5 to 6 lemons)
- Half of a 750-milliliter bottle vodka or gin (14 ounces)
- Lemon wheels for garnish
- Prepare the honey syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk the honey and water together. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring until the honey fully dissolves, about 1 minute. Let it cool and store in a sealed container for up to two weeks.
- Make the martinis: Combine the lemon juice, vodka or gin, 3/4 cup of the honey syrup, and 1 1/2 cups water in a pitcher or carafe. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours. When ready, pour into chilled martini glasses and garnish with lemon wheels.
Single Serving Option: For an instant cocktail, fill a shaker with 2 cups ice. Add 1 1/2 ounces vodka or gin, 1 1/2 tablespoons honey syrup, and 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice. Shake vigorously, strain into a chilled martini glass, and top with a lemon wheel. Perfect for sipping elegance at any moment!
