The Hangry Bee’s Knees Cocktail Recipe

This Hangry Bee’s Knees Cocktail takes the classic honey-driven cocktail and adds yellow chartreuse and elderflower liqueur. For us, our version represents the full spectrum of what the honeybee provides us, from pollen to honey to the gentle flavor of elderflower to the complex variety of herbs, spices, roots, barks, and flowers that make up yellow chartreuse.
