Everything You Need to Know About the Honey Bey
The Honey Bey is a cocktail that is at once elegant, bold and innovative, like the woman who inspired it, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. It's built around SirDavis American Rye Whisky, Bey's new liquor brand, which was named after her great-grandfather Davis Hogue, who made his own moonshine during Prohibition. The brand's signature cocktail is a riff on the Gold Rush, using rye whisky instead of bourbon, and slightly less honey syrup. It's smooth yet vibrant, the spicey notes of the whisky elevated and softened thanks to fresh lemon juice and honey syrup, a nod to the Queen Bee.
