Bee's Knees 🐝 🍯
Prohibition-era slang for “the best.”

Prohibition was obviously a bad idea. The Bee's Knees cocktail came out of though so there's that.
Bathtub gin, which is amateur homemade gin that was usually low-quality, was popular during prohibition. Ingredients like honey and lemon were used to improve the bad taste of these experimental gins.
While this is a simple cocktail made from gin, honey syrup and lemon it can be changed up with different types of honey and non-alcoholic gins.
Ingredients:
2 oz non-alcoholic gin
0.75 oz fresh lemon juice
0.5 oz honey syrup
Lemon peel garnish
Steps:
Add the NA gin, lemon juice and honey syrup to a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until chilled
Add the cannabis tincture to a coupe glass
Pour the Bee's Knees mix into your glass
Garnish with a lemon peel
