Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a mixing glass, combine 1.5 oz Irish whiskey, 0.75 oz honey syrup, 0.5 oz Irish cream liqueur, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters; stir with ice for 45 seconds until perfectly chilled and slightly diluted.
  2. Step 2: Strain into a rocks glass filled with a single large ice cube, ensuring the syrup dissolves fully into the mixture for a smooth texture.
  3. Step 3: Express the oil from 1 lemon twist over the drink by twisting it above the glass, then place it on the rim as a garnish, serving with a final gentle stir to integrate the citrus oils.
