HONEY BADGER COCKTAIL
Looks good, doesn't it?
This cocktail is really refreshing.
Honey Badger is a long cool cocktail made with Beer, honey, basil and bitters.
If you're a strict vegan you could replace the honey with agave nectar in this recipe.
I just realised my cocktails this week are all very woodland creature.
The last one was purple stag and this one is honey badger, maybe I need to start a series.
also try Cornish Cup Punch
pin it for later
