Today is National Nurses Day! We salute all nurses, especially those now on the front line of our ongoing pandemic. We are all so grateful for your courage and dedication! Mere words are not enough to express our admiration for you.

Today’s cocktail needed to include honey, since our “worker bee” nurses are full of precious sweetness.  I could even say that nurses are “the bee’s knees.” This is my version of the Bee’s Knees Cocktail.

In a shaker with ice, combine 1 1/2  ounces gin, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice.  Shake and strain into a chilled coupe glass.
