Sweet As Honey

I'm on a honey kick right now, craving it in food and cocktails, drawn to it in color and decor. Maybe it feels like a true sign of summer (as if the temperature outside wasn't making it clear). Whatever the reason, I can't seem to get enough of it!

I am completely smitten with the idea of using honey dippers as swizzle sticks for cocktails. Barenjager Honey Liqueur is also one of my favorite cocktail ingredients, so you can bet I'll be using this idea. The Sweetest Occasion
